    This didn’t whip even though I used the tahini brand recommended in the book. It also was really bland. I was bummed this one didn’t work out for me.

    Also made with Soom tahini - used a mini Cuisinart food processor, and it whipped up beautifully. Used 1 tsp Kosher salt, per the recipe, but will reduce a bit next time.

    I made this with Soom Tahini and it whipped up just fine. It is delicious although it is basically the same thing as what I have thought of for years now as "Tahina sauce", part of the process of making hummus bi tahini, and good as a spread or dip or condiment on its own and in many dishes. Nosrat's is very similar to the Basic Tahina Sauce in Michael Solomon's Zahav in that it uses basically the same ingredients, although Nosrat's version uses far less water and is therefore more dense. Updated that this does make a great condiment, and is excellent on bagels (or toast) among other things. Will remember.

    I tried this with Trader Joe’s tahini. It did not whip so I have a bunch of watery, lemony tahini to do something with. Edited to add that it tasted fine and I didn’t have a problem using it up. It was just a thin tahini sauce, no whip.
