Halva is a dense, sweet confection made from sesame seeds, sugar, and often flavorings such as vanilla or chocolate. It is a popular dessert in many Middle Eastern, Eastern European, and South Asian countries.
Halva can be eaten in a variety of ways. It can be cut into small pieces and eaten on its own, or it can be spread on bread or crackers. It can also be used as a filling for pastries or cookies. Halva is a good source of energy and fiber, and it is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, including calcium, iron, and zinc.
