Nourishing and crunchy...so perfect for kids of all ages... The sesame seds give a very good flavour to this snack.
this is an easy-to-make jar snack...really very tasty too. goes well with tea or it can even be used as a base for any snack. i used it as a base for vegetable pizza and also served it as a starter with cheese dip. i always store them in bulk and use whenever in short of time.
