Tips
Give tahini a quick stir to combine oily parts and solids.
Pick a light-colored and quite liquid tahini made from 100% hulled sesame seeds.
Add a whole crushed garlic clove for a mild garlic flavor instead of grating it.
You can serve it on almost anything, like hummus, falafel, salads, roasted veggies, grain bowls, and smashed potatoes.
