Mmmm! Delicious! No reason to spend the extra money on store-bought! This one's a winner! I did alter a few things: <br/><br/>I made a double batch (won't last long in my house!), <br/><br/>only did about 1/2 cup tahini for the entire double batch, <br/><br/>did 2 jalapenos per batch (because we like it hot!), <br/><br/>mixed in a sprinkling of cumin, <br/><br/>roasted my garlic and included a whole head of it,<br/><br/>did mostly lime juice with a little bit of lemon...<br/><br/>and didn't do any zest (we didn't have the fruits, so I just used the juice out of the bottles.). <br/><br/>I think it turned out great! Definitely has some kick, which is good!
