Sesame medallions

Soak the gelatin (8 g) in cold water (40 g) until it swells, then dissolve it in a water bath or microwave.

Add the room temperature egg yolk (40 g), sweetener (to taste), salt (0.5 g), and vanillin (0.2 g) to the dissolved gelatin. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly.

Add sesame seeds (40 g) to the prepared mixture and stir.

On a cutting board, previously lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat, place the resulting mass using a teaspoon. Cover it with plastic wrap and shape it as needed by pressing down with a cutting board or another flat object.

After that, leave the medallions in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes to set.

After this time, remove the wrap and place the medallions in a preheated oven at 160-170 °C.

Bake until a golden crust appears, which will take about 20 to 30 minutes.

After completely cooling, it is recommended to store the medallions in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

The cookies can be stored in the refrigerator, either open or closed, for up to 7 days from the moment of preparation.
