Tahini and sesame paste are a paste of ground sesame seeds that can be eaten uncooked, or, alternatively, used in cooking. It is a key ingredient in dishes such as hummus, various Asian dishes, halva, etc. It can also be eaten as a side dish or as a garnish, usually including lemon juice, salt and garlic, sugar. The ingredients determine if it needs to be refrigerated: hummus = yes; halva = no; sauces with tahini = yes. The raw tahini, however, does not need to be refrigerated.
