Sesame brittle (crushed)

Sesame brittle is a crunchy confection made by cooking sesame seeds with caramelised sugar or honey until it hardens into a crisp, snappable sheet. It is eaten as a snack or dessert, and its texture depends on how finely the sugar is caramelised before the sesame seeds are stirred in and set. It is popular across Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and Asian cuisines under various names.

Crushing breaks an ingredient into irregular fragments, which can pack either more loosely or more densely than the whole form depending on fragment size.
