Bought this to make my own hummus and for a Rachel Ama recipe - worked well in both meals! A bit like syrup/treacle trying to get it out of the jar - but first time I've used tahini so maybe they're all like that

Anonymous asked this question on 7th Dec 2009
Q: Can you please tell me what the difference between light and dark tahini is as most of the recipes I've seen don't specify which to use?rnrnThanks!
A: Hi, the difference lies in the way the sesame seeds are processed. If they are ground with their husks, (edible shells that contain fibre and minerals like zinc), the product is coarser. This is dark tahini. Light tahini is smoother, often preferred for cooking and is made from sesame seeds without husks.
I hope this helps,
Robyn.
