What is tahini?
Tahini is a paste made from finely ground sesame seeds and is a staple of Middle Eastern cuisine. It is frequently used in dishes such as hummus or baba ghanoush, but can also be used in many other recipes.
What does tahini taste like?
Tahini has a mild, nutty, slightly tangy flavour. As it is made from hulled sesame seeds, this variety is particularly smooth and less bitter than darker sesame pastes.
What can I use tahini for?
Tahini is suitable for classic dishes such as hummus or as a base for dressings and sauces. It can also be used in sweet recipes, for example in desserts or as a spread. In Asian cuisine, it is also used for sauces or dips.
What is the difference between tahini and sesame oil or dark sesame paste?
Unlike sesame oil, tahini is a solid paste, not an oil. White sesame paste is made from hulled sesame seeds and has a milder flavour, whilst darker varieties are stronger and more intense.
