There's nothing like a fiery bite to chase away the winter chill. We need something hot to warm us right down to our fingers and toes. There's a new sauce that provides this spark - the Mighty Sesame Company's new harissa spiked tahini sauce.
The Mighty Sesame Company creates everything with sesame seeds - namely tahini, the creamy sauce used in Greek and Mediterranean cooking. They're known for their tahini bars but have recently expanded into sauces. The harissa flavor is new and represents how important tahini is in Middle Eastern and North African cooking. Harissa is a Tunisian hot chili pepper paste made up of red pepper and garlic pastes, caraway and cumin. It is fiery but can be tempered with the addition of olive oil, or in this case tahini, the crushed sesame sauce.
It's the sauce to put on Gardein's chicken tenders, giving them some spark and zing. It's a nice change up from barbecue or hot sauce and I plan on using the harissa tahini again on them. I can even see it in a pita stuffed with chicken or steak shawarma. The Mighty sesame sauce will definitely be added to plain hummus too to zing it up and will be part of a dressing , mixed with a touch of olive oil.
It's biting cold outside. Warm your palate with The Mighty Sesame Company's harissa tahini. It's a great addition to any dish, from chicken tenders to hummus.
