Rice Halva

The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications.

But recently, I learned from a friend the recipe for making rice kozinaki and decided to try making them myself.

So, if you know where to get puffed rice, silan (date syrup), and tahini, and don't mind spending a couple of hours preparing them, I'll tell you how to make rice kozinaki.

Barley Crunchies

Pearl barley is not only a very healthy and beneficial product for health and beauty, but also quite economical. You can prepare many different dishes from this grain, but perhaps the most delicious and interesting idea is this simple recipe for pearl barley halva bars. The treat turns out truly amazing, although slightly firmer than regular halva bars. But if you don't have any issues with your teeth, that's no problem at all. I often make pearl barley halva bars at home because I always have this grain on the shelf, yet we rarely use it for other dishes. Try making this wonderful treat from pearl barley yourself—I hope you'll enjoy its taste as much as I do.

Sunflower Seed Halva

The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. For me, halva is the taste of childhood. No cakes or chocolates can replace the caramel flavor of crunchy roasted seeds that you can dip in tea. When making halva from sunflower seeds, I recommend using more honey than sugar—it's healthier.
