## Overview

Al Arz 100% Pure Sesame Tahini is a premium, additive-free spread crafted from the finest sesame seeds using a unique chemical-free salt water bath process. Revered by top chefs and gourmet restaurants, it delivers a smooth, consistent texture and authentic homemade flavor with a year-long shelf life at room temperature.

## Description

Tahini is a traditional Middle Eastern spread made of finely-ground sesame seeds. Similar to Hummus in consistency and color, Tahini is often served together with hummus as a dip for pita or vegetables. In fact, Tahini is alsa a key ingredient in hummus itself, infusing its flavor with a distinct hint of earthy grain. Al Arz Tahini is made solely of sesame seeds: no preservatives, additives, or food coloring. At the same time, the product has a shelf life of an entire year, no refrigeration required. Each step in our chemical-free processing method is designed in a way that minimizes the amount of heat and friction underwent by the sesame seeds. The seeds are peeled, roasted, and cooled slowly, under the meticulous watch of our food engineers at each stage. Using a gentle salt-water bath rather than machine arms to separate husk from seed is just one example of the innovative factory design that preserves the aroma and sweetness of the seed, making for an unmistakably traditional, homemade taste.

Review: and one is really bad while the other is ok - PLEASE KNOW THAT THIS WILL RUIN YOU FOR ALL OTHER BRANDS OF TAHINI [at least of the many I have tried]. That said I recently finished my first jar and it's delightful. There are only two brands available to me locally, and one is really bad while the other is ok, but far too expensive for the quality. I started ordering online and found one that I love that also happens to be very affordable. While I will still purchase that one, THIS one will be purchased regularly and used more judiciously. On first taste I thought, "Meh; it's good; not better, maybe, than my usual, but good, and glad I tried it. Now I know." Well, let me say that over the course of the next several days I kept sneaking tastes and adding it to all of the things and then, when trying to go back to a third decent brand [that I wouldn't, however, purchase again] I realized that none of them even come close to the deliciousness that is Al Arz. Just wish it wasn't so expensive, though I say def worth it. I kept it at room temp as usual and that works well. 1) Consistency is nice and thin, not watery or bland, and doesn't really separate which is a huge plus for me. This is my perfect consistency as I have now become a fan of ice "cream" because I can pour this straight out of the jar onto it... 2) This is not bitter at all. Though if you are not a fan of tahini, or maybe not acclimated, it could come off that way...very nice, flavorful, bite. A good tahini should have that as one that's just bitter is just...well...bitter but not in a tasty way.
Review: Best tahini paste! - This tahini paste is the best I've ever tried. It has a rich, nutty flavor and a smooth texture that blends perfectly into dishes. The quality is exceptional, and it really elevates any recipe. I highly recommend it for anyone who loves tahini or wants to try a top-notch product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best tahini paste!
*by L***N on August 21, 2024*

This tahini paste is the best I've ever tried. It has a rich, nutty flavor and a smooth texture that blends perfectly into dishes. The quality is exceptional, and it really elevates any recipe. I highly recommend it for anyone who loves tahini or wants to try a top-notch product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tahini made exactly as it should be
*by H***N on December 15, 2023*

The best, most authentic tahini I can find!! I taste tested several brands from Israeli supermarkets and Al Arz really stood out, and I'm so glad I can get it in the US, albeit for a much higher price. The "tahini" sold in most US grocery stores I find barely edible. Al Arz makes tahini exactly as it should be -- mild and nutty, not a hint of bitterness, and with a smooth, thin, even consistency that pours like maple syrup. I use it to make hummus and to drizzle on top of my shakshuka. Highly recommend!!
