⚙ Dry-Pan ToastingStoveFrying pan
💡Toast over medium heat and keep things moving: nuts, pine nuts and spices go from toasted to burnt in seconds. Transfer to a plate right away, since the hot pan keeps toasting.
2
Grind the toasted sesame in a powerful blender 10-15 minutes, into a smooth paste (raw tahini).
⚙ Grinding in a Food ProcessorFood processor
💡In a food processor, grind in short pulses and check between pulses: it's easy to go from coarse to paste. (Sesame for tahini, on the other hand, is ground continuously.)
3
Melt the chocolate in a double boiler.
