About whole-grain tahini

Whole-grain tahini is made from unhulled sesame: the whole seed, together with its hull. That is why it has a darker color and a stronger taste than tahini made from hulled sesame. In some jars the sesame oil rises to the surface; this is natural, and a good stir brings it back.
