Tahini 1 article
Tahini is a creamy paste made from ground sesame seeds, using hulled or unhulled seed depending on the product. It is a core ingredient in hummus, salad dressings, sauces, baked goods, and many Middle Eastern dishes, and natural oil separation can occur during storage. Plain tahini is often unsweetened, but labels should still be checked for salt or other additions. Its sesame base makes it a seed paste rather than a tree-nut butter and places it in the sesame-allergen context.
