Unhulled tahini is a paste ground from whole sesame seeds with the husk left on, giving a darker colour, coarser texture, and stronger, more bitter flavour than hulled tahini. One metric cup (250 ml) weighs around 240 grams or 8.47 ounces. When a recipe gives tahini in cups but your jar shows grams, converting by weight keeps sauces and bakes balanced.

Unhulled tahini separates and clings to the cup, so a level scoop is hard to judge. Weighing in grams gives a reliable amount and saves scraping a sticky measure.

Also known as

  • wholegrain tahini
  • dark tahini
  • wholemeal sesame paste

Hulled tahini is made from skinned sesame seeds, so it is paler, smoother, and milder than unhulled, though equal in weight (240 g per cup). Swap 1:1; choose hulled for delicate hummus and dressings, unhulled where a bolder, earthier sesame flavour and extra fibre are wanted. See our Hulled Tahini converter.

Sunflower seed butter is a milder seed paste, slightly heavier per cup (250 g vs 240 g) and less bitter than unhulled tahini. Both are nut-free and swap 1:1, with unhulled tahini bringing a much stronger, earthier sesame flavour to dressings and bars. See our Sunflower Seed Butter converter.
