Categories     dessert

Time 2h

Yield about 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup sesame seeds, plus more for sprinkling
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Pulse the sugar and 2 tablespoons sesame seeds in a food processor until finely ground.
  • Transfer the ground sesame mixture to a medium saucepan and add the butter, orange zest and juice, cornstarch and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture comes to a simmer and thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl; stir in the flour, vanilla and the remaining 2 tablespoons sesame seeds. Refrigerate until cooled and thickened, about 45 minutes.
  • Drop heaping teaspoonfuls of batter, 4 inches apart, onto the prepared baking sheets. Lightly sprinkle the tops with more sesame seeds. Bake, 1 baking sheet at a time, until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet until just set enough to lift with a spatula, 1 to 2 minutes, then carefully transfer to a rack. While the cookies are still warm, curl up 2 sides of each cookie with your fingers, then let cool completely. Repeat with the remaining batter (reline the baking sheets between batches).

Yield 9 dozens

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup toasted white sesame seeds
1/2 cup toasted black sesame seeds
2 large eggs
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons butter, melted

Steps:

  • 1. In a frying pan, toast the sesame seeds over medium heat until the seeds are fragrant and the white sesame seeds are golden brown. 2. In a medium bowl, combine the eggs, sugar, melted butter and sesame seeds and mix by hand until combined. Wrap and refrigerate the dough for an hour. 3. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Take the dough out of the refrigerator and let stand 5 to 10 minutes. Lightly stir to re-incorporate all the ingredients. Use a piece of flexible cutting mat or material of similar thickness such as a plastic coffee can lid to make a template; cut out a roughly 1-by-3-inch oval design. Place the template on a Silpat-lined baking sheet and spread the dough evenly into the cutout with a small offset spatula or a spoon. Leaving 1 to 2 inches between cookies, repeat with the remaining batter. 4. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, until crisp and lightly golden. Cool on a rack.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, measure and prepare all of your ingredients. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't forget anything.
  • Use a Silpat or Parchment Paper: To prevent the tuiles from sticking to the baking sheet, line it with a silpat or parchment paper.
  • Work Quickly: The batter for tuiles needs to be worked with quickly, as it will start to set as soon as it is mixed. Have your baking sheet and spatula ready before you start mixing the batter.
  • Spread the Batter Thinly: The batter for tuiles should be spread very thinly on the baking sheet. This will help them to crisp up and become delicate.
  • Bake Until Golden Brown: The tuiles are done baking when they are golden brown around the edges. Keep an eye on them so that they don't overcook.
  • Remove from the Baking Sheet Immediately: Once the tuiles are done baking, remove them from the baking sheet immediately. If you leave them on the baking sheet, they will continue to cook and become too hard.

Conclusion:

Sesame tuiles are a delicious and elegant cookie that can be enjoyed on their own or used to garnish desserts. They are easy to make and require just a few simple ingredients. With a little practice, you can create perfect tuiles that will impress your friends and family.
