Giuggiulena o cubbiàta

Traditioneel agrovoedingsproduct, nationale lijst van het Italiaanse ministerie van Landbouw

The giurgiulena, also known as giuggiulena, cubaita or cumpittu, is a traditional Christmas nougat-like candy, typical of the Sicilian cuisine and in use in a large part of Calabria.
The main ingredient is sesame, which in Sicily and in Calabria is precisely indicated by the terms giuggiulena, gigiolena, giuggiulea or ciciulena. The recipe is based on the composition of sesame seeds poured in honey and fixed by the caramelization of sugar (in an enriched version almonds and candied orange peel are also added), in the way of nougat.
It takes very long to prepare, with a rest period of twenty-four hours.
