Tahini Sauce, Homemade Tahini recipe

Tahini is made with just sesame seeds as main ingredient. It’s really easy to prepare at home.

Tahini may sound fancy but is so easy to prepare at home. When I was exploring recipes newly, I had no idea about the ingredients. But later realized it is sesame. So even in my hummus recipe, I used sesame seeds instead of tahini. I saw couple of recipes using tahini and thought should prepare at home.

I shot this last week and supposed to post over weekend, but kind of got carried away with the Kitchen tour and gave it a miss. So please bear with the simple post, I promise will use this and post one interesting one soon next. This may be simple one if you already know about it, but still for reference and beginners, I thought of posting. Check out my Hummus recipe.
