Sesame Seed Candy (깨강정)

[@manishmanish562]

We love you And this Korean dessert exactly same as Indian dessert we always make it in winter .. Love from India 🥰

[@tejashri11]

As I am exploring recipes you make, I came across the fact that Korean and Indian cuisine have so many similarities. We make Seasame prailine during kite festival in Mid January.

[@RhaineEDaize]

Sesame seed candy is my absolute favorite candy. They do not have an Asian market here, but when I go to omaha there is a rather large one. I find those first. Thank you for sharing your talent. Its appreciated. Have a great weekend.

[@ethanandrewventura]

Hi Maangchi! We are so glad my family discovered your channel! =) My wife and my daughter saw this video today and decided to make a batch of this delicious sesame seed candy. They used honey and brown sugar, but the outcome is still wonderful--- sweet, nutty, and crisp--- it's so hard to eat just one piece! Too bad we do not have freeze-dried berries since these are not readily available in Philippine grocery stores; the tangy, chewy, fruity taste must be a wonderful contrast to the crisp sweet sesame seeds and peanuts. Anyway, we love your recipes and your presentation; now we are constantly craving for Korean food. More power to you and we are looking forward to more delicious recipes! Cheers!

[@Maangchi]

ethan andrew Ventura I'm glad to hear that you made good sesame candy with a little modification. Good luck with your Korean cooking!

[@sengpeng1]

So nice

[@odomisan]

how about local fruits like dried mango or jackfruit?

[@benparkinson8314]

the strawberries look like rose petals… looks like it tastes great. thanks Maangchi

[@Maangchi]

Ben Parkinson Aren't they? Pretty! It will make a great gift.

[@kumarnavneet8968]

Actually we have a similar dessert here in India called Chikki. We actually use dried rose petals and sesame seeds soaked up in jaggery syrup.

[@malignance4579]

Uuuuuh, they look really delicious, I'm gonna try this, thanks Maangchi, you're recipes are always fun to watch. You're amazing!

[@Maangchi]

Good luck!

[@witchapparatus]

I love the colors the berries add! It makes me think of Valentine's Day candy. Maybe this V-day I'll make this for my man. :D Thank you for sharing, Maangchi!

[@Maangchi]

+witchapparatus That's a great idea!

[@advharinishreni]

We call this as Ellu Barfi for the sesame seed version and Chikki, verkadalai barfi for the peanut. Version. We use jaggery instead of sugar to make the syrup. Smells so good and taste so delicious.

[@jillc2700]

I made this today and I'm eating one now! So delicious! I added some lemon zest and used roasted almond slivers instead of peanuts and left off the freeze dried raspberries (since I didn't have any). I think I cooked the sugar syrup just a little too long, though. :-) My plan: take the majority to a board game night tomorrow and share them because these are just a bit too addictive to be sitting around at home. Thanks for the easy recipe, this may get added to my list of possible Christmas edible foodstuffs for various friends.

동결건조딸기를 넣어서 예쁘데요. 맛도 새콤한 맛도 있어서 좋구요. 이 방법대로 들깨강정도 해먹었어요

[@Maangchi]

[@crystalgarnet1632]

I just made this recipe and it came out delicious! I didn't have any freeze-dried fruits so I put chocolate chips instead. It was great! It melted all over and gave it an extra yummy flavor! Thank you, Maangchi!

[@Maangchi]

Sounds great!

[@imnotfromhere]

I treat my toasted sesame seeds like my treasure, too! Sometimes, I think I was Korean in a past life ;)

[@Maangchi]

pini2k haha, you are funny!

[@imnotfromhere]

[@TheSquishyMonster]

We used to get these as a treat for accompanying mama to the market when we were kids. Love how this takes me back...and sweet salt cellar =) I will have to make a "volcano" for myself soon, Maangchi! =)

[@Maangchi]

[@mgt2663]

In Northeast India, we do have white and black sesame candies too but we make it circle shape and in my language it's called "siping ni laddu"love from Northeast India 💓

[@Mikyle]

Maangchi! I just made this for my family, and they absolutely loved it! I already made another batch because we finished the other one! Thank you so much. They finally liked something I made haha.

[@gstraker3170]

I added grated, dried, home-toasted coconut to mine for additional nuttiness. Mine are more crispy and chewy than crunchy and brittle, but I love them. Thanks!

[@carolynchappa1912]

Hi Maangchi, I've recently discovered your channel and I am thoroughly enjoying looking at your cooking videos, and learning from them/you. You're a very likable person with wonderful personality. You are like 'sunshine' on a cloudy day.:) God bless you.

[@Maangchi]

asolis1982 : ) Thank you!

[@divenchen371]

I loved eating these as a little kid haha. Around chinese new years my mom would buy like a plate of candy or sweets and these were always my favorites along with a type of rock candy that had a peanut in the middle of it haha

[@에이치제이-e1q]

직장동료가 엄마가 검은깨강정 만들었다고 나눠줘서 먹어봤는데 홈메이드 깨강정 신기하고 맛있었어요 한번 만들어봐야겠어요💕😍👍

[@skrzatmroku]

In Poland it is called "sezamki" - but it doesn't contain peanuts and fruits (basic version). And usually we just buy it in the stores, it is not common to prepare it by yourself at home.

[@TheAdventureMentor]

Not only is it easy to make, it tastes great and it's SO healthy for you.

[@sharonmoneke1744]

I know this is old, but my fruits won’t stay in place. They keep coming off. Any tips please?

[@starsembroidery8102]

[@Maangchi]

French caption was submitted by one of my viewers! Thank you so much!

[@JennysSandBox]

Maangchi, I LOVE your postings and have learned so much. I think I will make this for Christmas candy. Very pretty. I have a tip for you. When you put any type of syrup (honey etc) in a measuring cup, put water in it first then empty out the water.... pour the syrup (honey) in the cup coated with water and it pours out perfectly leaving nothing behind.

[@heatherk8397]

I cant wait to make this. Have to find the syrup. I forgot to get it yesterday at the Asian market. I love your videos!

[@chefmike9945]

That was a very clever and delicious video. Thank you for sharing. Sesame seeds are really wonderful. Blessings ChefMike

[@kuhrisso]

Ahora se que haré mañana para acompañar el té. Gracias Maangchi, salvaste mi día n.n

[@sapnakiduniya19]

In India it's called chikki n we use jaggery or sugar instead of honey

[@Desmaad]

The freeze-dried fruit looks like an interesting idea.

[@gitanamora1000]

In egypt we do without the peanuts, with honey or sugar syrup and rose water. We name it "semsmeya"

[@vrundathakkar9]

Lol this is Chikki in India 🇮🇳 (excluding berries) If i add oats and berries to chikki during prep, I can sell it as energy bars/nutrition bars 😅

[@laurxcv]

Thi8s looks very tasty! I think I will try it, but I will use hazelnuts instead of peanuts. :)

[@Maangchi]

San Don Besoffskic It will turn out very delicious!

[@SingingSecretly]

I am Korean and I am always looking for wonderful Korean recipes to incorporate into my life. I really value my culture, and I want to make sure that it is a huge part of my life throughout my entire life, even though I live in the U.S. Korean food is a wonderful way to do that, in my opinion! I hope to make Korean food for my future children, but for now, I am making it for my mother who is from Korea and for my friends- who love it by the way! You're videos are amazing, and easy to follow. Thank you so much for sharing your meals and your time with us! I hope you never stop. :)

I really enjoy all.your recipes......this recipe is also made in india...my mom makes it with jaggery instead of sugar...it will be more tastier nd healthy...

[@tomojulitaiga]

The aztecs used to make them with honey and corn more than a thousand years ago. With the spanisards they changed the honey for sugar and the corn with dry fruits and peanuts or walnuts. n__n

[@WLUP1]

I had this somewhere but I don't remember when but when I saw this video I was wondering if it was the same recipe, maybe what I had was just sesame seed and fruit. Did you ever make them with just sesame seed and also what other fruit do you suggest with this? Thanks you're a pleasure to watch. Funny too.

[@nurulhafizah3872]

Support from Malaysia! c; i love this candy. It is healthy and kinda easy to make it. And the most important, it is sooooo tasty and yet delicious c;

[@lillyw.1611]

[@elenkirsan8514]

Hi Maangchi! Thank you for the wonderful recipes! I have been watching your channel for a long time and cook according to your recipes! I love Korean food! By the way, we have a similar sweetness in Russia, it is made from sunflower seeds, called kozinak)

[@Maangchi]

👏

[@jefferyrichardson2107]

I am excited to try this! Thank you!

[@merciasound]

i use chopped mixed nuts and soft dried apricots and golden raisins yummy

[@margiewalker1808]

Maangchi, thank you soooo much for this recipe. My whole family loves it. I have made three batches of it since discovering it 2 weeks ago. I made it for my grandson's Korean taekwondo master, he took it to his family and he said his sister and father fought over them. He also said that his father could not believe that I was not Korean. Thank you for the recipes, keep up the great recipes.

[@nasrphoenix4786]

It is pretty similar to pastel, a greed equivalent of this but we use honey instead of syrup

[@minjichae9713]

Love to maangchi and recipe😍

[@riyadali4082]

This is very similar to a sesame seed candy we make in Trinidad and Tobago called Benne Balls or Benne Sticks / cubes etc.

[@Michan297]

Hey maangchi!! They look soooo yummy I want some of these right now :( thank you for your recipes

[@DariusAbend]

ahh, the color is so pretty. wish i wasn't allergic, they look really good. >o

[@Maangchi]

Darius Abend yes, I fell in love with my sesame peanut candy, but eat only a few a day. High calories. : )

[@irishagold]

Thank you so much, Maangchi! As a kid, I used to have them with toasted sunflower seeds! Is it possible to substitute rise syrup for corn syrup?

[@dimple3389]

This is like Korean version of chikki 😋

[@booboojohnson1156]

The red makes it look very nice

[@haylieprice7574]

would it be possible to use other fruits...maybe blueberries or black berries?

[@xxxxxx-rk9pc]

American supermarket now may carry rice syrup. I found mine in a smart & final store. Look for the organic section on the aisle where they have flours, sugar and other baking staples.
