Sesame paste ground in a stone mill 300gr. Tahini is a completely natural product made from carefully selected whole sesame seeds. These seeds are shelled, dried, and then ground into a paste, creating this oily cream.

Tahini is a food known worldwide but particularly beloved in the Middle Eastern, North African, and Asian countries. In Greece, it is consumed year-round, but its consumption significantly increases during fasting periods.

Tahini contains high biological value proteins, as it is rich in amino acids (the essential building blocks of proteins). In order for the proteins in tahini to be of high biological value, they should be combined with a food rich in the amino acid lysine, as its lysine content is low.

Simply put, when tahini is consumed with foods that contain lysine, such as nuts and legumes, the resulting protein is similar to animal protein.
