How to Make Mock Tahini
- Toast sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant and lightly golden brown. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Transfer toasted sesame seeds to a food processor or high-powered blender.
- Add water, salt, and lemon juice (if using) to the food processor.
- Process until a smooth, creamy paste forms, adding more water a tablespoon at a time if needed to reach desired consistency. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more salt or lemon juice for desired flavor.
- Store your homemade mock tahini in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
