Made in collaboration with chef Molly Yeh, this organic premium halva from Hebel & Co. features a nutty, just-sweet-enough combination of peanut butter, dark chocolate and sea salt. Good halva—a Middle Eastern sesame candy—combines tahini and a sweetener in just the right proportion to create a confection with a light texture. This one is a textural delight: a flaky, crispy halva that slices cleanly and melts in the mouth. The familiar nutty taste of tahini gets extra punch from swirls of peanut butter and dark chocolate, and the addition of crunchy puffed quinoa reminds us of eating an exceptionally good candy bar. Eat it as a snack or serve as a dessert—we like it for entertaining, or it makes a unique gift.
In many parts of the world, the unique and challenging process of making halva—it isn’t easy achieving its one-of-a-kind, crispy-airy-luscious texture—is a skill that’s passed down between generations and usually requires apprenticeship. In short, a fudgy base made mostly of tahini is heated and combined with a sugar foaming agent that aerates the mixture. After plenty of kneading, cooling and shaping, the loaves we know as halva are packaged and ready to be eaten.
