EASY HOMEMADE TAHINI

Tahini is an essential ingredient in homemade hummus but I never use the whole jar before the rest of it go bad & for me it is more cost effective to make my own. Fortunately tahini is very easy to make & takes just a few minutes.

INGREDIENTS & INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Lightly toast 1 Cup sesame seeds at 325 degrees for 10-15 minutes. Stir every 5 minutes. I set my timer because sesame seeds burn very easily & need to be closely watched.

2. After roasting the seeds, place in a high speed blender, blend until creamy as seen below.

3. Lastly, add 2 TBSP of olive oil & blend again. If you would like it to be more runny, add another TBSP olive oil. 

4. This makes approximately ¾ Cup tahini, place in an airtight container & store in the refrigerator for up to a month. ENJOY!
