Tunas Tahini Calories

Use Tunas Tahini in both savory and sweet dishes. Stir it into hummus, whisk it into dressings and sauces, drizzle it over roasted vegetables, or add it to cookies and other baked goods for a nutty sesame flavor.

Usually, Tunas Tahini can be kept tightly closed in a cool, dry cupboard away from sunlight and heat. Refrigeration can make it thicker; follow the storage directions on the jar if they specify otherwise.

For a similar creamy texture, substitute Tunas Tahini with smooth sunflower-seed butter or another seed butter. Peanut or almond butter also works in some recipes, but each changes the flavor; sesame paste is the closest match.

A mild bitter or toasted note can be part of Tunas Tahini’s sesame flavor. A sharply rancid smell or unusually unpleasant bitterness can signal that the oils have deteriorated, so do not eat it if it smells or tastes off.

Yes, Tunas Tahini can be frozen in a tightly sealed, freezer-safe container, leaving room for expansion. Thaw it in the refrigerator and stir well afterward, since freezing and thawing may make the oil and sesame solids separate.

Whisk Tunas Tahini with lemon juice, crushed garlic, and water to make a simple sesame sauce. The mixture may thicken at first; keep adding water a little at a time while whisking until it becomes pourable.

Yes, Tunas Tahini works in cookies, cakes, and other baked goods, adding a rich sesame taste. Mix it thoroughly into the batter, and account for its richness when adjusting other fats in a recipe.
