Hulled tahini is a smooth paste ground from skinned (hulled) sesame seeds, the pale, mild style used for hummus, dressings, and halva. One metric cup (250 ml) weighs around 240 grams or 8.47 ounces. When a recipe gives tahini in cups but your jar lists grams, converting by weight keeps sauces and bakes balanced.

Tahini separates and clings to cups, so a level scoop is hard to measure. Weighing in grams gives a reliable amount and saves scraping a sticky cup.

Unhulled tahini keeps the sesame husk, so it is darker, coarser, and more bitter than smooth hulled tahini, though equal in weight (240 g per cup). Swap 1:1; choose hulled for pale, mild hummus and dressings, unhulled for a stronger, earthier sesame flavour and extra fibre. See unhulled tahini in US cups.

Peanut butter is a sweeter, thicker nut spread, heavier per cup (268 g vs 240 g) than tahini. They swap 1:1 in sauces and bars, with tahini bringing a looser texture and a savoury, slightly bitter taste where peanut butter is rich and roasted. See peanut butter in US cups.

Almond butter is a milder, richer nut paste, heavier per cup (256 g vs 240 g) than tahini. Swap 1:1 in dressings and bars; tahini pours looser with a bitter, savoury edge, while almond butter is smoother and a touch sweet. See almond butter in US cups.

Sunflower seed butter is another seed paste, slightly heavier per cup (250 g vs 240 g) and milder and earthier than tahini. Both are nut-free; swap 1:1, with tahini giving a stronger, more bitter sesame note in dressings and sweets. See sunflower seed butter in US cups.
