Once Again
Organic Unsweetened & Salt-Free Tahini
What it is
This is a smooth, creamy paste made from 100% organic, hulled sesame seeds. It is carefully processed to ensure no added sweeteners or salt, allowing the pure, nutty flavor of the sesame to shine through. The texture is rich and velvety, making it a versatile ingredient in both sweet and savory dishes. Its natural oil content contributes to its luxurious mouthfeel and helps bind ingredients together.
How people cook with it
People use this tahini as a base for dressings, dips, and sauces. It also adds depth to baked goods and marinades.
- Dressing base
- Dip ingredient
- Sauce emulsifier
- Baking enhancer
To use, stir the tahini well before measuring, as the natural sesame oil may separate and rise to the top. This is a normal occurrence. Spoon the desired amount into a bowl for dressings or dips. Whisk it with lemon juice, garlic, and water to achieve a smooth, pourable consistency. It can also be incorporated into marinades for meats or vegetables, or blended into baked goods like cookies and brownies for a rich, nutty flavor. Its unsweetened nature makes it adaptable to various flavor profiles.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike tahini with added sweeteners or salt, this version offers a pure sesame taste. This allows for greater control over the final flavor profile of your dishes. It is ideal for those who prefer to manage their sugar and sodium intake or for recipes where a clean, unadulterated sesame flavor is desired.
Who it is for
Home cooks and bakers who appreciate natural ingredients and want to control the sweetness and saltiness of their creations.
How to keep the rest
After opening, store any remaining tahini in an airtight container in a cool, dark place, such as a pantry. Refrigeration is not strictly necessary but can help maintain freshness for longer. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent oxidation and preserve the quality of the paste.
