I have a whole jar of dark tahini that needs using by the end of the month, and was wondering if anyone has any exciting recipies! I have a whole pack of dried chickpeas, so could make a huuuge bowl of houmous, if it would freeze ok? But I would love some other ideas if you lovely peeps have any! :beer:

This thread may help. I don't think you can beat a nice bowl of garlicky, rough houmous with a good splat of lemon juice and some warm crusty bread

Smear some toast with tahini then add slices of banana on top for a healthy breakfast.
When I first heard this recipe I thought it wouldn't taste that good but try it...it's yummy!
You could also use the tahini and chick peas to make falafel.0 -
I've never worried about the use by date on tahini... I suspect that I have some in my fridge which is several years out of date, but it still works fine for houmus!0

Hmmm, I use tahini instead of butter on toast - with a smear of jam on top it is sublime. Also drizzled over a salad, stir fry or noodle dish is yummmmmy. Hell, I have been known to eat it from the jar

I made some falafel today , didnt put the tahini in the falafel , but tahini often mixed with yoghurt & lemon juice as a dip/dressing for them0

Thanks guys for some great ideas! I probably wouldn't be bothered about the date, but I have another jar to follow!
Will definitely try it on toast, and I had forgotten all about tahini dressing! Thank you! :beer:0 -
Tahini-Yogurt dip with fresh nutmeg. Nice with all sorts of veg, or bread.
Would also not chuck out straight at the date..0
