Homemade Tahini

Ingredients:

  • 8 ounces (about 1 cup) brown sesame seeds, like Bob's Red Mill
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, like Lucini, plus more if needed
  • Salt, to taste

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Spread sesame seeds on a parchment-paper-lined cookie sheet, and bake for 6 minutes.
  3. Mix and respread sesame seeds, and return to oven for 6 to 8 minutes more, or until sesame seeds are fragrant and golden brown.
  4. Immediately transfer toasted seeds to a separate bowl to prevent carryover cooking.
  5. Add sesame seeds to the bowl of a food processor and grind for 1 minute, or until seeds have broken down.
  6. While processor is on, drizzle in olive oil, and continue to grind for 1 or 2 minutes more, or until a smooth paste forms.
  7. If mixture is too dry, then add more olive oil, 1 teaspoon at a time.
  8. Season to taste.
  9. Transfer tahini to a mason jar, and store in the fridge for up to one month.
