Questions & Answers

What is the consistency of this tahini?

Yes, it is despite the thickness, it is relatively thin. I have found the Tahini to always be fresh and I have never had a problem with the quality. You may need to stir it with a spoon if it's been sitting in your pantry for some time. Since I have used numerous brands of Tahini for more than 25 years, I believe this is one of the best brands

Do you know if this brand is ?

This is real lebanese stuff made with sesame paste,so a third cup would be great to throw into a 15 ounce garbanzo bean can. And don't forget the lemon juice. Chef john a private chef recommends.

What is the gluten content of this item?

* Are Tahini and Halawa gluten-free products? I copied and pasted this from the Alkanater website Founded in 1973, Al Kanater Tahina contains no gluten because sesame seeds are the only ingredient used in the production process. As well as being gluten free, the Halawa is also dairy A mixture of tahina, sugar, halawa root extract, citric acid, and vanilla is used to make this snack. Throughout the entire facility, gluten free products are sold.

In the past 15 months, I have bought this item It is nearly impossible for me to go a day without making hummus
5/5

Hummus is what I eat every day during my first break at work. Since nearly two years now, I have been doing it. In addition to the brand I use now, I have tried others. This is the one I prefer. As far as I have been able to find, this brand is the best balance between smoothness and flavor. Apparently there is another brand that is a bit smoother, though I didn't like it so much As a matter of fact, I am familiar with the American tahini, the Israeli tahini, and the As far as flavor is concerned, I prefer the flavor of lebanese tahini. With good flavor and ease of use, this tahini is easy to work with and has an above average smoothness when used as a hummus ingredient. As I mentioned above, it's easy to work with tahini, because when you open a new jar of tahini you typically have to mix the thicker paste which has collected at the bottom of the container with the thin oil which is at the top. I also found that the paste didn't separate particularly much in some jars of this, even though the cement portion is hard. As a consequence, I've gotten into the habit of storing this upside down (lid down) until I need I do this so that the paste moves to the top of the container when I open it and is easier to mix.

This is by far the best
5/5

It used to be available at my local Mediterranean market, but it's no longer there, so I bought it from Amazon instead! Because I am a certified tahini junkie, I have a lot of experience with it. In the past few years, I have tried almost every There is no such thing as a creamier, dreamier sesame paste than this one. You will find other brands in this area like Soom, 365, Trader Joe's. Even other Lebanese Tahini brands, such as Baron's and Mounir Bissat come from Lebanon. In order to make them less bitter, they all need added sweetener and salt. Please don't get me wrong, I'm not opposed to making a tahini dressing out of any of these, but this one at least requires I don't know. You can drink this right out of the jar on its own. On the bottom, there is nothing. Neither the spoon nor the fork are left. In a few days, there will be nothing left in the mammoth sized jar. Further words do not need to be said.

The best Tahini I have ever tasted
5/5

There have been places in the world that I ate and made tahini (not hummus, just tahini). Tahini like this is the best on the market, as it is delicious, fresh, and easy to use. I have a pre-existing condition The cup will be stirred but not watery, so you can just use half of it and make one cup. Tahini in five cups. Tahini is a breakfast food I enjoy with pita accompanied by tahini. Normally don't want to eat a sweet in the Stir in cool water slowly to the bowl of tahini after the ingredients are combined, the tahini will seize and become difficult to stir. You'll be able to notice the paste smoothing out as you stir and stir and stir. If the paste seems to be curdling, stir gently, add more water slowly, and stir again. The tahini should be thick enough by then, so stop adding water when it's the desired consistency. * Highly recommended ALKANATET.

A creamy texture
5/5

My decision to pick this book was based on reading lots of reviews. During my college years, I made hummus by combining olive oil (heated and infused with garlic and chili flakes) and the starchy water from However, the third ingredient has given my hummus a unique flavor. *Note that this ingredient has a nutty, toasty, creaminess to it. In the stores around me, Hummus costs too much for what it is. In contrast to the other hummus that you receive, this one seemed more worthwhile because I make hummus every week. My mine is kept in a cabinet. When ready to use, shake well before using. There is one thing I don't like about this game, and that is the lid doesn't seem to close all the way. You keep turning and turning and turning and the lid just keeps returning. Even so, I have to make sure I hold the lid down tightly when I shake the bottle to avoid getting creamy sesame paste all over the place.

There are lots of things I do
5/5

I make hummus. There is so much to say. Hummous runs through the veins of a Jew like me. Hummus cannot be made with American beans due to the lack of readily available food. Unlike the smaller beans we often use for hummus, Kabuli Chana, the large ones we tend to use, are incorrect in so many ways. As bad as tahini is the crap that is sold in the stores as tahini.

As we get to this amazing Tahini, we can no longer relax. I am Alfred. There's nothing bitter about it, it's smooth, creamy and not grainy. Yummy sauces such as hummus or tahina like this have the perfect consistency. If you are making any other food dish with tahini, you may use it as a condiment. I have just about three, go-to recipes that I can keep track of Tahini's is my go-to place for all my tahini's There can never be a dull moment with Alkanateer. As well as the two Lebanese people, there are two others. There's just something about their tahini that I really like. It will not hold a candle to this product, or to any of the other Lebanese tahinis. Don't fall for that scam claiming that soom is the best. Thus, all you need to do is Taking the plunge won't end up being a regret.

Soom is the opposite of that
5/5

After trying so many different brands, I bought this product once I didn't want to pay for soom ever
I find it funny that so many reviews of tahini mention how it gets gunky at the bottom. This is just as good as soom, but a little cheaper. If they are in a group, they will all do that. You will not have that problem if you shake it up frequently or use it quickly. You can also forget about it and just accept it because you'll mix it up for hummus in the food processor. My next purchase of this brand will be this one.

The flavor of this tahini/tahina is outstanding
5/5

It seems to have no specks from the hull (I assume) like some other ships. It isn't an extremely thick tahini, but it is unlikely to be the thinnest I have experienced As the lid is secure and the foil seal between the jar & lid is good, it came with it well taped down The lid on this is much better than many of the other manufacturers' that use To seal their jars, they use a piece of plastic that is 0000001 thick.
