Tahini

Tahini is a smooth, creamy paste made from ground sesame seeds. It has a rich, nutty flavor and is commonly used in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean dishes. Tahini serves as a key ingredient in recipes like hummus, baba ganoush, and salad dressings. It’s nutritious, providing healthy fats, protein, and minerals such as calcium and magnesium. The process involves roasting or raw grinding sesame seeds until they form a paste. Versatile and flavorful, tahini adds depth to both savory and sweet dishes and can also be enjoyed spread on bread or used as a dip.
