MYO: Tahini Substitute

[MabelMartha]

Tahini is an ingredient used in hummas recipes. It can be difficult to find and is often only available in large jars. An inexpensive substitute is peanut butter.

That’s a great idea in a pinch 🙂

If this is a repeat post, I apologise. My last seems to have disappeared.

I love hummus and have used peanut butter as a substitute for tahini, but it seemed to be missing something. I keep a bottle of dark sesame oil around for seasoning, so I added some, starting with just a few drops, until it tasted right to me. I suggest doing it this way because I find that some sesame oils are stronger than others.
