Tahini (Ardeh)

Start Here

A glass bowl of pale tan tahini beside lemon and garlic
The bowl gives ardeh its visual context: a pale, pourable sesame paste, shown here before it is mixed with lemon and garlic.

A dense source of fat and plant protein — useful when appetite is small.

Unhulled sesame paste is high in calcium; hulled tahini has much less.

Supplies copper, magnesium, iron and zinc in ordinary spoon-sized amounts.

Contains sesamin and sesamolin, sesame compounds studied for effects on blood fats.
