Tahini

Tahini is sesame butter and used in middle eastern recipes. I've made this so many times that I could make it in my sleep. Unfortunately, I left out a very important instruction on adding the water. I've modified the instructions to address the problem with my recipe as pointed out by Anne G. in her review.

• Ready In: 5 mins
• Yields: 1 cup

Ingredients

• 2  tablespoons sesame seeds
• 1⁄2 cup  sesame oil
• 1⁄4 cup water
• 1⁄4 teaspoon salt

Directions

1. Blend sesame seeds in a blender and grind until smooth.
2. Add sesame oil , salt and then slowly add water while blending. You may not need all of the water, add just enough to achieve the right consistency without making it runny. I usually add a tablespoon at a time.
3. Continue to blend until completely smooth.
4. Store in the refrigerator.
