Halva is a sweet dish, originating from the Middle East. Halva, as a treat is most widespread in Bosnia and neighboring countries in the Balkans, North Africa and central Asian countries. In Bosnia we meet most of sesame halva (Tahan, arab. طحينة, tahinia). This type of halva is also the most popular in Europe and America.

Preparation :
