[@coolroy4300]

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

[@anestinamercy5761]

I tried It and it came out yummy!

[@anestinamercy5761]

@Pink Salt ,I didn't use it

[@Rye_d_baker]

Processing now to apply as you did. I just did little change. I mix 1 cup of agave and 1/2 cup of honey.

[@Rye_d_baker]

Did it very well. My kids loved it

[@afstorage5355]

I will definitely try them, I love them and so healthy especially with honey.

[@romeliaarmstrong6143]

Well I like your recepy and the tricks you show. Tks a millions

[@user-ol4et1eu8d]

Now looking at this video and it looks super delicious and a must must try.. I love the healthier way and it was explain so well

[@nostoppingit7827]

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.

[@yoyou3264]

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.

[@natalieramon2595]

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

Δοκίμασα τη συνταγή εύκολη και γρήγορη. Το πορτοκαλί την κάνει πεντανόστιμη. Πολύ χρήσιμα τα βίντεό σου συνέχισε έτσι.

[@tan.91]

I just made this while watching this tutorial and it smells so good!

[@DimitrasDishes]

Wonderful!

[@sargondp69]

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.

[@gocaignjatovic4886]

Very healthy!!!!Delicious!!!

[@fireballplay2946]

Looks delicious and totally healthy....you never disappoint !

[@veronicaalmeda8014]

Honey is not healthy, ppl tend to believe this only bc bees make it.

[@psychozof]

Dziękuję! Zdrowa receptura! More Healthy Sweets please! Love!

[@rhodacopland2997]

Thank you, I will make from South Africa

[@mihretmichael9700]

Looks great and delicious

[@rayeofsunshine83]

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.

[@Peptidesflorida]

Same thing happened to me :(

[@ardeq]

Super I’ll start to do it myself too

[@cookingwithmimmo]

Wow very nice recipe so yummy

[@Lelliott1122]

Yum! I will makes these for sure! Thank you❤️

[@glendacrosbywilkins4246]

That is wonderful!!!!

[@DimitrasDishes]

Enjoy!

[@davet766]

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.

[@DoloresJRush]

Ah! I'm thankful I found something sweet I can eat! Looks yummy!

[@psinschktz1192]

Is there a way to do it without boiling the honey?

[@cindystudstill5022]

I can literally smell the aroma of the orange.

[@donnellmartin1056]

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.

[@DimitrasDishes]

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

[@rafiqmlmohammedrafiqrafiq3324]

Hi i hv heard that if v shud not boil honey cos it's not safe to eat is this true kindly reply

[@kamakshijolly4156]

Jaggery and sesame is a very good option as well!!

[@shereinmisheiki1560]

Thanks for the recipe but can you please let me know what’s the measurements for the sesame. Thanks

[@Cal-smith7026]

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?

[@justinfilipovic8939]

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

[@louisemichaels473]

Hulled or unhulled sesame seeds?

[@lenamahayni6216]

What to substitute honey with ?

[@rose5566]

Yummmm

[@rosaoddin4338]

What is opinion of using lemon zest??

[@sylhomeo6351]

Great for Passover, no flour?

[@bettytsakoniatis5528]

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?

[@smallick100]

I don't see any link for buying greek honey.

[@Shea11bee]

Finally got this recipe and easy! When I fist tried this greek sesame candy in Athens I wanted to bring a lot of them on my suitcase! 😋 🧡👌🏽

[@emmangacha3678]

Can I get the quantities?

[@wandersarchive3992]

Can I use already toasted sesame seeds?

[@afstorage5355]

You didn’t tell us how to store them and for how long we can store them?

OH LORD YES!!

[@bridgetumphryes3368]

oh my mercy that looks so good oh where do you buy the honey

Almonds and Pistachios were best Oh so yummy!!

[@rosaoddin4338]

And how do you store these, frig or room temperature?

[@DimitrasDishes]

Room temperature

[@Kilex6522]

Yassas, Is this the same as Melacooni?

[@BigTony2Guns]

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---

[@kiemc1855]

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.

[@DimitrasDishes]

Here it is, but I also have links on my website :). amzn.to/2xXRTeu

My question! Will u gain weight eating this?? Homemade.

[@athenaemmanouilidis1291]

Lol the honey isn't as bad as sugar

[@recipedictionary7330]

WoW thanks so much

[@anestihatzisavvas6639]

Is melikoumi the same thing?

[@dimz796]

You mean melekouni? It's a Rhodes version of pasteli

[@kidperfect5905]

Why do we have to toast the sesame seeds?

[@priyankachoudhury2965]

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

[@catherinetsitlakidis2941]

How much sesame seeds?????

[@DimitrasDishes]

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.

[@paulwarren4775]

Thought you weren’t supposed to heat honey

[@mugology4715]

i have the same grater :D

[@afstorage5355]

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.

[@BethyKable]

You wow...pure heaven! Please let me move into your house!

Gluten free Baklava 😆

[@sallyfayejallow9598]

Nice one. But instead of cooking the honey, it was better to mixed with dates

[@mantuli8500]

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.

Boiling honey is never advised.
