Tahini or sesame paste (Arabic: طحينه‎), is a paste of ground sesame seeds used in cooking.
Tahini is a major component of hummus (chickpeas with tahini) and other Greek and Middle Eastern foods. It is sold fresh or dehydrated.

Tahini paste is used in a variety of dishes. Tahini-based sauces are common in Middle Eastern restaurants as a side dish or as a garnish, usually including lemon juice, salt and garlic, and thinned with water. Tahini sauce is also a popular condiment for meat and vegetables in Middle Eastern cuisine. In addition, it is a main ingredient in soups. As a spread, tahini can replace peanut butter on bread, though the flavor and texture are quite different.
