Premium Tahini Paste Made from Sesame Seeds
What is Tahini?
Tahini is a traditional sesame seed paste originating in the Middle East. It is valued for its rich, creamy
character and high nutritional value.
A Centuries-Old Middle Eastern Tradition
Pairing tahini with dates isn’t just a modern trend – as early as the 14th century, people in the Middle East enjoyed tahini with dates.
What Makes This Pairing So Special?
• Perfect Flavor Harmony: Smooth tahini is nutty, rich, and silky with a hint of gentle bitterness that perfectly balances the natural sweetness of dates
• Elegant Serving Culture: In the Middle East, tahini is served in a small bowl alongside premium Medjool dates – each bite of date is dipped into creamy tahini
• Gourmet Contrast: While dates bring sweetness and juiciness, tahini adds nutty depth and a subtle bitterness that elevates the whole experience
How to Serve
Traditional Way: Spoon a tablespoon of tahini onto a small plate, place a few dates next to it. Tear open a date and dip it into tahini – a delicious ritual that also looks impressive for guests.
Stuffed Dates: Fill pitted dates with tahini (½ to 1 teaspoon per date) and top with sesame seeds. Perfect for elegant serving.
With Coffee: Tahini with dates is an ideal companion to Arabic coffee with cardamom or a strong espresso – its complex flavor beautifully balances coffee’s bitterness
