Ingredients
- 200 gr sesame seeds
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Roast sesame seeds in a thick, deep pan, at medium heat (on the stovetop). Stir the seeds with a wooden spatula every minute or so. The sesame seeds need to be golden but not burnt.
- In a blender or food processor, add sesame seeds, pulse for a few moments, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and repeat the process. Stir the tahini paste, add one more tablespoon of olive oil and blend again. You need to blend the seeds until they become paste, in 5 minutes or so.
- Put tahini in a glass container and press it with the spoon so it gets more homogenous.
