Organic Tahini

A condiment made from organic roasted ground hulled sesame seeds, tahini is used widely in Chinese, Vietnamese, Greek, Middle Eastern, North African and Bulgarian cuisines. There are countless tahini-based sauces, dips and spreads, the most common of which involves blending tahini with lemon, salt and garlic. An excellent source of calcium, iron and protein, tahini is particularly beneficial to vegetarian and vegan diets. It is a healthier alternative to peanut butter because of its higher fiber content and lower levels of sugar and saturated fats.
