Our friends over at Jewlicious - wild and crazy tahini fans that they are - held a “Tahini Taste Off” unlike any that could happen in the States. Unless you find yourself at a Middle Eastern specialty store, you basically have a choice between Sabra or the hippy stuff (my preference). But in Israel, where the official testing occurred, you can choose from any number of authentic Israeli and Palestinian varieties.

According to Jewlicious their mission was to “find the best tahini in Israel” by making up a mess of tahini and blind taste testing it with “random denizens of the Jerusalem Shuk.”

Find out which Tahini reigned supreme here.
