Step 1
Toast the 1 cup sesame seeds and 1/2 cup hazelnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring often, until fragrant and lightly golden, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Add the 1/4 cup honey and 1/4 teaspoon salt to the skillet. Stir constantly until the honey coats the seeds and nuts and the mixture clumps together, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Transfer the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Press it into a flat, even layer about 1/2 inch thick using a spatula or another sheet of parchment.
Step 4
Let cool until firm, about 10 minutes, then break into pieces. Store in an airtight container.
Step 5
Optional: sprinkle with fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary before cooling for a savory twist.
