Thank you for your orange zest idea and your oil in the measuring cup or whatever to help the sticky stuff come out .The best trick I've learned since my Grandmother taught me to cook .The lemon is good too
I lost my recipe and have been looking everywhere for a sesame candy recipe without sugar. Why would anyone put sugar in sesame candy? You can get it hard by adding less honey or spreading it thinly on a cookie sheet to cool. Sugar defeats the whole purpose of a healthy candy imo. So glad you posted this, never tried orange peel before but will definately be trying it.
NoStoppingit7 people put sugar in the candy cause they want the candy to hardened better, candy like if I makes any sense. This recipe came out amazing, but it’s sticky, not hard.
My No ney was talking about this candy he always bought in Greece as a boy. He was so excited you had the recipe. Thank you for sharing this, I'm going to make it for him.
I'm so very happy you are making this...I need this recipe in my life🌻🐝 Thank you for all the great recipes you show us... We in my family truly appreciate you.💐😊😃
Just found this channel. These look delish. I'm going with 1/2 sugar as I want a hard candy. Sesame bars are a great trail snack. I could go for days with a backpack full and enough water.
Same base as Helva. I have some black sesame seeds and might try something like this with them. But I would not cook the honey so much as it loses too much of it nutrients when heated.
I love greek food, my bestie is greek and her yayah (grandmother) has taught us some receipes. I love hava, and sponakopeta, im not big on baklava, to much sugar. There are other dishes, and im sorry my spelling is wrong, but we have a greek festival hete the first weekend in sept. And wow, the gyros, and grape wraps are sooo good. Im german-irish my self and me and my BFF teach each other different receipes from each of our heritage. I loving learning and trying new things. Just like i tell my kids, how are you gonna know if you like if you dont try it.
I made these but had to use regular honey. I don’t know if it was the different honey but these were not firm enough to stay in the shape I cut them in. I ended up rolling them into balls. I put them on wax paper but they stick to the paper. If I made them again I would roll them in dry sesame seeds so they’re not as sticky. Also, I’m pretty sure the amount made in the video is half the recipe. Had I known that I would have done the same. I’m now stuck with tons of these and I’m the only one who likes them.
Hi Dimitra I love pasteli I've never tried to make it, I do prefer the kind that snaps so I will try mixing the honey with sugar as you suggested. I will have to get together with my mum and make it now... Have you made a video making Moustalevria?
it's not just honey from exactly inside the greek borders that's special but the general area for example aristotle praised the wealth of bee forage in where is now albania
You should Oil your paper with sesame oil, or any neutral tasting oil !! Use Pam/Cooking Spray on measuring cups So that the honey will come out easier, and on your spatula and spoons---
Here's Dimitra's link to purchase Greek honey: www.amazon.com/Attiki-Greek-Honey-16-Jar/dp/B000CD87MI/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&qid=1490913965&sr=8-2&keywords=greek+honey&linkCode=sl1&tag=dimitrasdishe-20&linkId=ca70ff9dc1d4000d3c895dcf7cfaea7c
Toasting releases the flavour of sesame and the sesame oil inside of it gets activated. Same goes of any nuts or spices. Praying makes it taste 10 times better
Granola bars do not require oats. Using honey it will stay fresh so very much longer like almost forever. It is very hard to score pick so it doesn't harden up the candy ever. I just purchased a new unfiltered raw honey that was 16 oz not 40 oz is like I usually get. This recipe is going to take just about all of my honey.
That should say Hydroscopic. I voice type a hundred percent of the time and the words are all correct when I hit the send Arrow but something happens when the message goes through and gets printed. Half of the words are wrong and I can't go through and fix every message at that point. I fix them before I send them.

@@yoyou3264 in my opinion stickiness is good 😉 yk you can lick your finger/hands after eat it 🤣

I agree with you! The children should be exposed to delicious food :) All the best!

Same thing happened to me :(
I can literally smell the aroma of the orange.

Thanks for sharing !!
Jaggery and sesame is a very good option as well!!
Looks great and delicious
I love ❤️ your food 😋
Amazing. I want to try this.

Enjoy! If you're on Instagram, tag me in pics :)
I can't wait to make pasteli bravo!
Hi Dimitra I love pasteli I've never tried to make it, I do prefer the kind that snaps so I will try mixing the honey with sugar as you suggested. I will have to get together with my mum and make it now... Have you made a video making Moustalevria?
Wow very nice recipe so yummy
it's not just honey from exactly inside the greek borders that's special but the general area for example aristotle praised the wealth of bee forage in where is now albania
Wow thanks so much God bless 🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤👌👌👌👌👌👌👌❤❤❤❤❤❤
OH LORD YES!!
Yummy
Bravo
Hi i hv heard that if v shud not boil honey cos it's not safe to eat is this true kindly reply
Yummy 😋
Is there a way to do it without boiling the honey?
You should Oil your paper with sesame oil, or any neutral tasting oil !! Use Pam/Cooking Spray on measuring cups So that the honey will come out easier, and on your spatula and spoons---
WoW thanks so much
Yummmm
Thanks for the recipe but can you please let me know what’s the measurements for the sesame. Thanks
Μπορείτε νά μας δείξετε και μια τούρτα γενεθλίων για κορίτσι 7 ετών? Ευχαριστώ.
wow⚘
What is opinion of using lemon zest??
The measurements for this honey recipe default to the sugar hard card snaps. With just honey do you use 2 or 3 cups of sesame seeds?
i have the same grater :D
Have you tried African honey??!
This looks great and I think my kids will enjoy it. I can't wait to try it . Also where is the link to purchase Greek honey.
Here it is, but I also have links on my website :). amzn.to/2xXRTeu
Thank You!
I don't see any link for buying greek honey.
I love it but when you cook the honey it destroys its enzymes so there’s no point in taking a good quality honey, just use any honey.
Hulled or unhulled sesame seeds?
You wow...pure heaven! Please let me move into your house!
oh my mercy that looks so good oh where do you buy the honey
Bridget Umphryes ...
I too want to purchase the honey she mentioned!

thank you
I buy it from my local Mediterranean market or from Amazon :)
thank you
Yumm 🌻🐝
What to substitute honey with ?
Mmmmm
Dimitra, thank you for the pastelli recipe! (but, please, more bouzouki, less tarantella...)
I give you to many thumbs up
And how do you store these, frig or room temperature?
Room temperature
Can I use already toasted sesame seeds?
MMMMMMMMMTHANK S 👍
Great for Passover, no flour?
Yassas, Is this the same as Melacooni?
👍
Can I get the quantities?
Can i add dried fruits and other nuts ?
Almonds and Pistachios were best Oh so yummy!!
You didn’t tell us how to store them and for how long we can store them?
Is melikoumi the same thing?
You mean melekouni? It's a Rhodes version of pasteli
Nice one. But instead of cooking the honey, it was better to mixed with dates
Why do we have to toast the sesame seeds?
Toasting releases the flavour of sesame and the sesame oil inside of it gets activated. Same goes of any nuts or spices. Praying makes it taste 10 times better
My question! Will u gain weight eating this?? Homemade.
Lol the honey isn't as bad as sugar
How much sesame seeds?????
All of the measurements are on www.dimitradsihes.com. My more recent episodes have the exact ingredients along with the recipe in the description box.

Thought you weren’t supposed to heat honey
Gluten free Baklava 😆
Boiling honey is never advised.
Trying to search for a animator but found this
I'll try this without cooking the honey. It's not safe to eat cooked honey, also I don't see the purpose in cooking it.
