What is Tahini?

Tahini is a paste made from toasted and ground sesame seeds. Considered a staple of Mediterranean cuisine, tahini is also prominent in traditional dishes from Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. Favored for its smooth texture and rich flavor, it can be used as a dip, spread, salad dressing, or condiment in various dishes.

Its texture resembles nut butter, but it has a stronger, more savory flavor, which is often described as bitter.

How to use Tahini?

Tahini is very versatile and can be enjoyed in various ways. It is often spread on toast or used as a dip for a bread roll. It can also be mixed with olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and spices to create a rich, creamy homemade salad dressing. Alternatively, try using it to dip your favorite vegetables, such as carrots, bell peppers, cucumbers, or cassava sticks, for a healthy snack.

Tahini can even bring a unique flavor to baked goods and desserts, such as banana bread, cookies, or cake, to help soften the sweetness and add a nutty flavor.

It is a product traditionally widely used in Arab cuisine in general, as it is a fundamental ingredient in several dishes, such as Hummus, babaganoush, and sauces.

It can also replace margarine and butter, being a much healthier alternative; in fact, Tahini is also called Sesame Butter.
