Instructions

Place the sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Swirl the pan occasionally until the sugar melts and turns a medium amber color (8-10 mins).
Stir in the sesame seeds and salt, then immediately pour the mixture onto parchment paper or a silicone mat. Quickly spread it thin with the back of a butter-greased spoon and let it cool.
With a wet knife, chop the cooled sesame brittle into very small pieces. Transfer it into a lidded tupperware until you’re ready to use it. Enjoy!
