Artisana Raw Tahini starts with the choicest organic raw sesame seeds and adds - absolutely nothing. The seeds are mechanically hulled and processed at low temperatures to preserve the vital enzymes, fatty acids, vitamins and proteins. Artisana tahini has a delightfully complex flavor that only fresh, living foods can deliver. Use it as a dip for chopped vegetables, as a dressing for salads, or as a refreshing switch from peanut butter. You can also make delicious hummus by adding this tahini to garbanzo beans and olive oil. Raw 100% organic pure ground sesame seeds.
Experience the delightful texture and clean aroma of our raw, uniquely energizing Tahini. Artisana™ Organic Raw Tahini is great to add to fruit, shakes, cereal, sandwiches, confections or eat right out of the jar. Or use in place of or in addition to hummus.
Tahini is a staple in Middle Eastern cuisine and East Asian cooking. In Greece, it’s a popular condiment for dipping pita, souvlaki and kabobs. In Israel, it’s a favorite topping for falafel and shwarma. In East Asia, it’s commonly used in noodle dishes. In Turkey, they make their own version of the PBJ, with Tahini and grape molasses.
Tahini is relatively high in calcium and protein, and is an excellent source of copper, zinc, iron, manganese, amino acids, omega-3 and omega-6 oils. Those nutrients help fight inflammation and provide significant cardiovascular and immune support. Just one tablespoon of tahini has roughly 26 percent of the recommended daily intake of copper and 9 to 12 percent of zinc, iron and selenium.
