Key Market Trends

Health Benefits and Taste-Enhancing Properties of Tahini

Tahini is recently gaining popularity in Western culture, as one of the vital ingredients that make up a good hummus. Besides hummus, tahini is also the base ingredient of numerous Middle Eastern dishes. Because of its versatility and the depth of flavor that it provides, tahini has been recognized by “The New York Times”, as one of the “mother sauces”. Apart from its taste, it provides optimum health benefits. According to the US Department of Agriculture(USDA) National Nutrient Database, tahini contains large amounts of mono and poly-unsaturated fats, known to be beneficial to the heart and overall health. However, sesame seeds also contain phytosterols, that exhibit cholesterol-lowering, and cancer-blocking effects, but due to their hard outer hull, it is difficult for the body to absorb the nutrients.
