Light tahini
Description
Light tahini is a smooth, creamy paste with a delicate, nutty aroma and a subtle, salty-bitter note, made from hulled, lightly roasted sesame seeds, which gives it a light, creamy-beige color and a silky texture. The product is a concentrated source of healthy monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, plant protein, fiber, and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and iron, as well as phytosterols and antioxidants; regular, moderate consumption may support heart health, bone health, and the maintenance of a feeling of fullness. Light tahini works great as a base for hummus, dressings, salad sauces, dips, marinades, smoothies, and baked goods, as well as an addition to Mediterranean and Middle Eastern dishes. Store in a sealed container in a cool, dark place; after opening, it is best kept in the refrigerator, stirred before use due to oil separation, and consumed within a few months.
