Al Arz Tahini Sesame Seed Paste, 16 oz

Tahini is a traditional Middle Eastern spread made of finely-ground sesame seeds. Similar to Hummus in consistency and color, Tahini is often served together with hummus as a dip for pita or vegetables. In fact, Tahini is alsa a key ingredient in hummus itself, infusing its flavor with a distinct hint of earthy grain. Al Arz Tahini is made solely of sesame seeds: no preservatives, additives, or food coloring. At the same time, the product has a shelf life of an entire year, no refrigeration required. Each step in our chemical-free processing method is designed in a way that minimizes the amount of heat and friction underwent by the sesame seeds. The seeds are peeled, roasted, and cooled slowly, under the meticulous watch of our food engineers at each stage. Using a gentle salt-water bath rather than machine arms to separate husk from seed is just one example of the innovative factory design that preserves the aroma and sweetness of the seed, making for an unmistakably traditional, homemade taste.
