Thank you so much! I am going to try this this weekend. I have been wanting to make hummus and had everything except the tahini. I couldn't find it in the grocery store and didn't know it was sesame oil until now. I already have sesame oil in my cupboard! Yeah! If only I'd known that was what tahini was, I could have made a long time ago. Oh well.

I'm the enrichment emergency prep person in RS now and plan on doing a full enrichment taste test night on using beans this spring/summer. That means I too have to get over my fear of soaking and using beans. :) I will look forward to more of your findings for help. Thanks again for the great blog!

About Tahini. It is not sesame oil, though you could probably substitute. Tahini is sesame paste. What you probably should put in your hummus, if you can find it, is tahina, which is a fermented sesame product. If you find an authentic falafel stand, tahina is the runny white stuff that's got a sharp taste to it.

I looked on line for a Tahini recipe on line. It is very easy to make. You just toast sesame seeds in the oven and then put in your food processor with olive oil till it is
the consistance of paste.
