Sesame seeds in the US are used primarily for decorting buns, and all too often Americans forget its range of uses. Over in Vietnam, and much of the world, sesame is ground into an array of products like Sesame Candy, an odd sesame and peanut snack with a taffy-like consistency. These Vietnamese sesame candy are sweet and delicious, though, and more than once I found myself sleep walking to the kitchen, in search of their sweet, rich goodness. They did not last long enough.
