Instructions

  1. Dry-toast the walnuts in a pan for 5 minutes, then roughly crush them.
  2. Put the honey, sugar and butter in a saucepan and heat over medium heat.
  3. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring, until you get a golden caramel that forms a hard thread when dropped into cold water.
  4. Add the walnuts and the pinch of salt, then mix quickly.
  5. Spread the mixture on an oiled tray in a layer about 1 cm thick.
  6. Leave to cool for 10 minutes, then cut into diamonds before it is completely hardened.

Variations and tips

Sesame version. Replace half the walnuts with toasted sesame seeds for a crunchier version.
