Didn't see the thread where this began but I'm glad you posted! I don't use a lot of tahini so am reluctant to keep it around as I always end up pitching an almost full jar. This way I can make a small batch - thanks!

1# of sesame seeds makes exactly 1 pint of tahini. it keeps for months and you can freeze it . You can also freeze hummus veey successfully. I make large batches and freeze all the time. No difference in taste or texture. Let me know how it goes. 🙏

I just made a second batch. Stuck it in the freezer. Got to get garbanzos and beets to make a beet hummus.

Thank you for this!! I adore tahini. It keeps really well in the fridge. I have a jar I'm using and one on the shelf so that I never run out. I always put a big dollop in my vinaigrette, instant emulsification. I keep smaller amounts of sesame seeds on hand to toast for toppings. I find it really hard to stir them in a pan and keep them from jumping out. They are lively little critters.

Thank you, Trailrunner! I am astonished! Who knew?!?

It looks so pristine and delicious!

Its truly easy snd delicious. I ended up with 2 batches so 2 pints! I am ready for hummus season. 😊

Yum! Thanks for the instructions.

Thanks for this! Definitely going to try it.
