Tahini is a paste made from ground, hulled sesame seeds. Sometimes the seeds are roasted before being ground. A spoonful of Tahini is nutty, rich, and a little bitter with a silky mouthfeel.
Sesame paste and tahini both consist of ground sesame seeds. The biggest difference is that tahini contains lightly toasted hulled seeds. Whereas sesame paste uses unhulled dark toasted sesame seeds resulting in a much nuttier flavour and darker colour.
Tahini also has selenium. It acts as an antioxidant and helps lower inflammation in the body. Studies show sesamol, a natural chemical found in sesame seeds and sesame oil, has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging benefits. Other studies suggest it also has strong anti-cancer effects.
Tahini is made of three ingredients: hulled sesame seeds, oil and sometimes salt. Hulled sesame seeds are typically toasted then ground and emulsified with oil to create a smooth, creamy seed butter with a pourable consistency.
