Terre Exotique Organic Tahini, 180g

Terre Exotique’s organic tahini is a nutty sesame paste – a key ingredient when making hummus. Tahini comes from the Arabic word ṭaḥīniyya which translates as ‘to grind’, and describes the way sesame seeds are ground to create this paste. 

With a smooth texture and nutty flavour, this tahini is wonderful in both sweet and savoury cooking. Mix the sesame paste with water, lemon juice and a little salt to create a classic Israeli dressing, then drizzle over falafels, roasted vegetables or couscous salads. Alternatively, add tahini to hummus for a nutty depth of flavour, or pair with dark chocolate in cookies and babka bread.

About Terre Exotique

Terre Exotique works directly with hundreds of specialist farmers and producers around the world – to bring the very best peppers, spices and salts to our tables. The company was founded by Erwann de Kerros, a Breton and seasoned traveller. After tasting pepper in the Penja plantation in Cameroon, Kerros yearned to try other specialist peppers and spices – and Terre Exotique was born.

The company works closely with farmers to preserve natural habitats, and to ensure a sustainable income for local communities. Each spice is carefully packed in tins or glass jars – with no plastic. The metal tins preserve the flavours and aroma of your spice, by protecting them from sunlight. So the ingredients stay at their best for longer.
