Method

Dry the shelled seeds in a dry frying pan over medium heat until lightly golden, stirring constantly, then cool.
Grind the seeds in a blender into a paste, leaving a couple of spoonfuls whole for texture.
Whip the egg white with a pinch of salt with a mixer until stiff peaks form.
Cook the syrup of water and sugar over low heat: after it comes to a boil, keep it going for 3 minutes until it becomes thick and stringy.
With the mixer still running, pour the hot syrup into the egg white in a thin stream and whip until the mixture thickens and cools.
Fold in the seed paste with a spatula until evenly gray, transfer to a parchment-lined mold and refrigerate for 2–3 hours, then slice.
