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.
