    Crunchy Sesame Seed Candy,From “The Jewish Holiday Cookbook” by Gloria Kaufer Greene. For the best results, try to make it on a cool dry day.,Why did it not get crunchy? Were you suppose to stop stirring during the final two minutes of boiling?,Be careful not to over toast your seeds. They take on a bitter flavor, I found out, not horrible, just could be better if more lightly toasted. I really like the subtle ginger cinnamon flavor in these candies.
