How To Make Homemade Tahini

Ingredients

For 5 people

  • 1 cup of sesame seeds
  • olive oil

Instructions

Put the sesame seeds in a warm frying pan and fry gently, turning frequently. When they are uniformly golden (or they start to jump), remove from heat.

Put the sesame seeds and olive oil into ULTRABLEND + and select the “nuts” or “pulse” function. Scrape the sides of the blender several times. Add more olive oil until a creamy texture is achieved.

Tips

Sesame seeds are extremely rich in calcium and also contain significant quantities of magnesium, zinc, iron, and fibre. Their distinctive yet mild taste can be used to enhance any dish. Sesame seeds also provide a good salt alternative in the form of gomashio (shop bought or home-made).
