Tahini sauce is a creamy, flavorful condiment made primarily from ground sesame seeds, lemon juice, garlic, and water, with optional additions like olive oil and herbs. Originating from Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, it is a versatile accompaniment to dishes such as falafel, roasted vegetables, and grain bowls. Tahini sauce is packed with nutrients, including healthy fats, plant-based proteins, calcium, and magnesium, which contribute to bone health and energy support. Rich in antioxidants, it may also promote heart health and reduce inflammation. However, it is calorie-dense due to its high fat content, so portion control is recommended, particularly for those monitoring caloric intake. Free from dairy and gluten, tahini sauce is a popular choice among vegan and gluten-free diets. Its unique nutty flavor and creamy texture make it a delightful and nutrient-rich addition to meals, enhancing both taste and nutritional value.
