P.S.
12
Tahini hides out in the supermarket and doesnt like to be found.
13
I normally find it by the Greek olives, in the condiment aisle.
14
Beware of its pricey price!
15
If youd rather save a few bucks, you can just buy 2 spice-sized containers of sesame seeds and blend them with a little olive oil.
16
Its never quite as smooth as the pre-made paste, but it gets the job done.
17
Two containers will net you about 1/2 cup of tahini paste.
