Best Homemade Tahini Recipes
HOMEMADE TAHINI
Tahini is a staple in Middle Eastern cooking. It's added to mashed garbanzo beans to make hummus, mixed with date paste, or drizzled with pekmez in Turkey for breakfast. It tastes great in sandwiches or baked into cookies. Really, there are many many uses for this tasty dip. Start with the freshest sesame seeds you can find.

HOMEMADE TAHINI
Making your own tahini, a staple in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, is so simple you'll find it hard to go back. You need only two ingredients and a handful of minutes to produce a fresh, nutty tahini that will enhance everything from hummus and baba ghanoush to salad dressings and even desserts. You can make tahini with various kinds of oil, such as grapeseed, sesame and canola. We use one of the more popular picks -- vegetable oil -- and add just enough to yield a smooth but not runny tahini.

Steps:
- Put the sesame seeds in a food processor and blend on high until the mixture turns crumbly, about 1 minute. Add the oil and blend on high, stopping every minute or so to scrape down the sides, until the mixture is completely smooth, 5 to 8 minutes. You might need to add another tablespoon of oil to reach the desired consistency. The tahini should be smooth and pourable. Store in a clean jar in the refrigerator for about a month and give it a good stir before using.
