Tahini Sauce is a very popular Egyptian (or Oriental ) Sauce, we actually call it in Egypt Tahini "Salad" not "sauce" , it's very easy , done in very few minutes & it's an amazing side dish with all grilled dishes . We also eat it with bread for breakfast or lunch beside other dishes , it's delicious & you can add the spices you want to it & you can control its thickness , by adding more or less water. I personally prefer it a bit liquidy , but some people prefer it thick, Some people add "Hummus" or Yogurt to it. but this is the basic recipe & you create your own recipe out of this basic recipe.

Hope you try this recipe & I'm Sure you will love it!

The result was perfect & unfortunately was finished in half a day , my kids gave to friends & neighbours !
Second day, I loved the Idea, so I made my brownies recipes & cup it in small cubes & inserted wooden skewers in them & were just perfct & kids loved them too .

Then I started searching in internet & found an amazing blog for an amazing German lady called Eva & she gave me the best clue ever! She gave me the hint that I wanted ! I must thank her so much because she inspired me! Here's a link to her post: http://www.food-vegetarisch.de/2013/07/food-fotografie-meine-hintergruende/
