Cendrine's Sesame Delight


Our friend Cendrine was here on a visit from Israel. She is doing her Ph.D. in Public Health and her research is tied to my old work, the Suicide Center (National Prevention of Suicide and Mental Ill-Health at Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm County Council's Centre for Suicide Research and Prevention of Mental Ill-Health (you can see why I call it the Suicide Center)). She made this great and simple desert based on sesame seeds. 

Ingredients:
halva
tahini
vanilla ice-cream

Serve and enjoy. Don't be afraid to go heavy on the tahini. Cendrine brought organic whole wheat (?) tahini. We had a great time and Cendrine also told us about her organic food co-op in Israel. And cooked us a delicious chicken with a ton of herbs.
