Prep 2. Do You Have Tahini Paste?If you already have Tahini paste at home, continue with the recipe instructions. If you don't have Tahini at home and have no idea what it is, keep reading. TAHINI PASTE Tahini is a sesame seed paste, that in Arabic means "to grind"; and that's really all it is: ground up (hulled) sesame seeds. Tahini is normally used for hummus, but it's also used for Baba Ganoush, dressings, and sauces. You can buy a jar for under $5 at Walmart, Target, and Trader Joe's, or choose to make your own. I found a great recipe for making your own Tahini HERE. Prep 3. In The Kitchen
