Tahini is a unique paste with an amazing golden hue and a smooth, velvety texture that gives a rich creamy taste to every dish. Its thick creaminess is derived from the ground mass of whole sesame seeds, and can be used in a myriad of recipes, from baking to cooking and pastry making.

With tahini, we can create wonderful sauces for our grilled and boiled vegetables, spread it on our sandwiches and Arabic breads, add flavor and nutritional value to our cooked dishes, and create delicious recipes such as nutritious tahini pies, tahini soups and even healthy smoothies. In addition, the wonderful and popular halva we enjoy on Clean Monday is an example of the wonderful taste and healthy benefits of tahini.
