Tahini — ground sesame paste consumed for over 3,500 years — is one of humanity's oldest superfoods. Dhatu Organic Sesame Butter is stone-ground from 100% organic sesame seeds to preserve every milligram of its extraordinary mineral wealth.
The Mineral Champion of Seed Butters
Sesame seeds contain more calcium per 100g than dairy milk, more iron than red meat, and a rare amino acid — methionine — that legumes lack, making tahini nutritionally complete when combined with chickpeas, lentils or pulses. Dhatu stone-grinds small batches at low temperature to protect heat-sensitive minerals and beneficial fats.
Key Benefits
- 426mg Calcium per 100g — More Than Dairy Milk — An exceptional plant-based calcium source for bones, teeth and muscle function; essential for vegans and those who are lactose intolerant.
- 9mg Iron per 100g — One of the richest plant sources of iron; supports red blood cell production and combats iron-deficiency anaemia — common in vegetarian and vegan diets.
- Rich in Sesamin & Lignans — Unique antioxidants found almost exclusively in sesame; linked to cholesterol reduction, contains naturally occurring sesame lignans
- Complete Protein When Combined with Pulses — Sesame's methionine complements the lysine in chickpeas and lentils to form a complete amino acid profile — the nutritional science behind classic hummus.
How to Use
Classic hummus base · Drizzle over falafel and salads · Stir into dressings with lemon and garlic · Add to noodles and stir-fries · Blend into smoothies for a calcium boost · Spread on toast with honey · Mix into energy balls.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does tahini have more calcium than milk?
Yes. Sesame seeds contain approximately 426mg calcium per 100g versus approximately 113mg per 100g in whole dairy milk. Stone-grinding improves calcium bioavailability from sesame.
Why does it taste slightly bitter?
A very mild bitterness comes from phenolic compounds and sesamin in the seed hull. This indicates high antioxidant content and is normal in premium unhulled tahini.
Is it nut-free?
Yes. Sesame is a seed, not a nut. Note that sesame is itself a common allergen — those with sesame sensitivity should avoid this product.
Is it suitable for vegans?
Yes. One ingredient: organic sesame seeds. No animal products, no additives.
