Sesame paste, also known as tahini, is a creamy condiment made from finely ground sesame seeds. A staple in Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and Asian cuisines, it boasts a rich, nutty flavor and smooth texture. Packed with nutrients, sesame paste is an excellent source of healthy fats, plant-based protein, calcium, magnesium, and B vitamins. It contains antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds, supporting heart, bone, and skin health. Its healthy fat content promotes satiety, making it a valuable addition to balanced meals. However, sesame paste is calorie-dense, so portion control is key to including it in a nutritious diet. Commonly used in dishes like hummus, salad dressings, sauces, and desserts, sesame paste is versatile and enhances both savory and sweet recipes. Whether drizzled or mixed, this nutrient-rich paste adds depth and health benefits to everyday meals.
