FAQ
Tahini is made from toasted sesame seeds that are ground into a smooth, creamy paste. Sometimes, a little oil is added for a silkier texture.
If you don’t have tahini, you can use almond butter, peanut butter, or sunflower seed butter as a substitute. Greek yogurt with a splash of olive oil can also work in a pinch.
Store homemade tahini sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will keep fresh for up to a week. Give it a good stir before using, as it may separate over time.
