Ingredients
- 500 g sesame seeds
Instructions
- Toast the Sesame Seeds:
Place a skillet over low heat and add the sesame seeds. Stir continuously for 3-4 minutes until the seeds release their aroma. Be cautious not to increase the heat to avoid burning the seeds, as this will make them bitter. - Blend the Seeds:
Transfer the toasted sesame seeds to a blender. Blend them for about 10 minutes, pausing every 30 seconds to avoid overheating the blender. Continue blending until the mixture becomes smooth and runny, achieving the desired texture. - Storage:
Pour the tahini into a sterilized glass jar. Store it for up to 3 months, either in the refrigerator or at room temperature.
