Tahini is the new black, page 45

Or at least the new peanut butter. I might be sick of tahini after trying everything on this featured page. I've been eating peanut butter my whole life, though, and still think about it on the same level as good chocolate and cheese, so we'll see.

The first thing I made was the Cauliflower Spinach Dip that's steamed and then processed like hummus. It's the most beautiful, minty shade of green and was delicious with pita chips. I brought it to a mommies and babies picnic in Central Park.

There are 10 total suggestions for tahini on this page

Tahini drizzled over kale. I bought my favorite kale salad from a local Italian restaurant and used it for this (May 11th)
Tahini over roasted fish. I used catfish from our local fish market, Metropolitan Fish Market in Williamsburg. After I drizzled the tahini over it, I topped it with carmelized red onions. (May 14th)
Red lentil hummus (May 19yh) I've gone through a whole jar of tahini and now have to buy more!
Tahini deviled eggs ( May 20th ) I'm not very good at peeling eggs, but I'm really good at piping them through a pastry bag!

And we're done!
