Tahini Halva is a traditional, nutritious and energetic product made from a combination of natural and healthy ground sesame with sugar or natural syrup. The tasty and authentic Iranian Oghab sesame halva has a balanced taste of pleasant sweetness and the pleasant aroma of roasted sesame and is usually light cream to golden brown in color, which varies depending on the type of sesame and the degree of roasting in different brands. This nutritious product is rich in vegetable proteins (suitable for vegetarians and people looking for an alternative to animal protein), beneficial fatty acids (supplying energy for daily activities), vitamins B and E, calcium, iron and magnesium, which is an excellent suggestion for providing daily energy, especially for breakfast or snacks for all ages (over two years old).
Tahini Halva is best stored in a cool environment away from direct sunlight to maintain its quality and aroma. The expiration date of this product, according to health experts, is set at about eighteen months after production. If after some time you see a layer of oil on the surface of the Tahini Halva, there is no need to worry; this phenomenon is completely natural and indicates the presence of pure sesame oil; a valuable oil rich in vitamins.
Tahini Halva is essentially a solid and stringy product that is prepared through a special process of combining sugar, liquid glucose, citric acid, and Alhagi extract, and then this syrup is mixed with tahini and kneaded to find its special texture. If necessary, some permitted additives can also be used in its preparation.
On the other hand, sesame halva is obtained from a combination of ground sesame and natural syrup. Although sugar can also be used, the taste and nutritional value of syrup is much more suitable. If this product is produced properly, it will be a rich source of essential fatty acids such as omega 3, omega 6 and omega 9. Also, due to its slower digestion, it creates a feeling of satiety for a longer period of time and is an excellent choice for nutritious snacks.
For more variety in nutritious meals, you can choose peanut butter products with different flavors.
Storage conditions: It is best to store it in a dry, cool place and away from direct sunlight.
