Tahini

One of the ingredients in the hummus recipe I have on here is tahini. I've bought that at the store before but never made it from scratch, and it looked like it would be pretty simple to make, so I decided to give it a go. Besides, it is pretty expensive if you buy it pre-made. I bought the raw, hulled sesame seeds in the bulk section of a local grocery store.

Ingredients
-1 C sesame seeds
-1/4 C vegetable oil (I used olive oil)

Directions
-Preheat oven to 340°F (170° C).
-Spread your sesame seeds on a roasting tray, and toast in the oven for 15 minutes, stirring regularly to toast evenly. Do not allow to brown.
-Remove the sesame seeds from the oven and allow to cool briefly.
-Put the toasted sesame seeds in your food processor, with metal blades fitted, and add the oil.
-When the mixture is evenly smooth, transfer your tahini to a tight fitting glass jar using a flexible spatula, to reduce waste.
-Tahini may be kept in the refrigerator for many weeks in a well sealed jar.

One thing though, is that I do not have a food processor. So I'm trying it with a Magic Bullet MBR-1701 17-Piece Express Mixing Set instead. My kit came with two blades, and I tried the normal mixing one first but it wasn't doing the job. The flat blade did much better.
