Premium tahini paste from sesame seeds
What is Tahini?
Tahini is a traditional sesame-seed paste from 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 is not just a modern trend—people in the Middle East were already eating tahini with dates in the 14th century.
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 ritual: In the Middle East, tahini is served in a small bowl alongside premium Medjool dates—each bite of date is dipped into creamy tahini
• Gastronomic 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: Pour a spoonful of tahini onto a small plate and place a few dates next to it. Tear open a date and dip it into tahini—this ritual is both delicious and impressive for guests.
Stuffed dates: Fill pitted dates with tahini (½ to 1 teaspoon per date) and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Ideal for elegant serving.
With coffee: Tahini with dates is the perfect companion to Arabic coffee with cardamom or a strong espresso—their complex flavor beautifully balances coffee’s bitterness

Helpful tips from Mr. Date:
How to use tahini with dates
Mr. Date knows how to enjoy life. He recommends a simple yet magical combination—fresh dates and tahini. Take
a juicy date, slice it lengthwise, remove the pit, and gently fill it with tahini. One bite—and you’ll understand why the East
is famous for its desserts.
This duo is not only delicious but also wholesome: dates provide energy, and tahini adds valuable fats and calcium. An ideal snack in the middle of the day
or a sweet finish after dinner.
