This recipe offers a delightful twist on traditional tahini, enhancing its flavor and texture for a versatile and delicious spread.
Toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan over medium heat until fragrant, stirring frequently.
Toasting enhances the nutty flavor of the sesame seeds, making the tahini more aromatic.
Allow the toasted sesame seeds to cool completely before proceeding.
Cooling prevents the seeds from releasing excess oil during grinding, ensuring a smoother texture.
Grind the sesame seeds in a spice grinder until finely ground.
Grind in small batches if necessary to achieve a consistent texture.
Transfer the ground sesame seeds to a food processor. Add olive oil, sea salt, lemon juice, and minced garlic.
Adding the liquid ingredients gradually helps achieve the desired consistency.
Process the mixture until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
For a creamier texture, process for an additional minute.
Store the tahini in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Label the container with the preparation date for easy tracking.
Serve the tahini as a dip, spread, or ingredient in your favorite recipes.
