Tahin Pekmez Recipe #380677

A traditional Turkish spread/dip. This has been referrred to as the 'peanut butter and jelly sandwich of Turkey'. I don't know how true that is, but a PB&J sandwich-even if it's a Turkish version sounds good to me! Depending on the recipe source, sometimes the ratio of grape molasses to tahini is 1:1. Experiment.

  1. In a bowl combine the ingredients. Some recipes online indicate to mix well while others stir the ingredients together in a "swirly" manner (think of a marbled cake). I'll let you decide that.
  2. Serve at room temperature.
  3. Use as a spread/dip with Turkish or Arabic bread, French bread, etc.
