Organic Tahini (Peeled White Sesame Seed Paste) 200g

฿ 145.00

Tahini is a paste that is produced from grinding either white or black sesame seeds. The taste and texture of Tahini vary across the two different colour variants, mostly as a result of using hulled vs unhulled sesame seeds, but also depending on whether they are slightly or heavily roasted. It is an extremely versatile product that can be used in both sweet and savory dishes.

It is packed with essential vitamins and minerals, linoleic acid, oleic acid and amino acids including lysine, tryptophan and methionine. Like other types of healthy fats, the sesame seed oils within tahini are noted to help lower cholesterol, provide dietary fiber for digestion, improve blood pressure, balance hormones and more.

The RAWGANIQ™ Difference

Both hulled and unhulled sesame seeds contain high levels of nutrition. We use both organic varieties but add extra caution to preserving these nutrients by slowly grinding the seeds in traditional stone mills. We thus offer a variety of textures and tastes to suit our customers, including the addition of a healthy and natural low GI sweetner – organic coconut blossom nectar.

  • Certified organic to both USDA/NOP and EU standards (view certificate)
  • We directly import through our own cleaning facility, and thus can guarantee transparency and highest quality
  • Packed and processed in FDA-approved, GMP and HACCP-certified facility (view certificate)
  • Lab analysis to ensure your safety (Click “lab analysis” tab to learn more)
