I was sitting in a restaurant in Cyprus waiting for my order when the waiter brought a little dip and some bread to my table as a starter. It tasted amazing so I was curious to know more. After some research I discovered that it was tahini and carob molasses, a dish from the Middle East. They usually serve it with pita bread.
This appetiser is really simple to make and it takes literally just two minutes. Simply pour tahini in a small dish, since it’s meant to be served in a very small size. Then drizzle carob syrup over tahini, making a nice drizzle effect. That’s it! Don’t forget to serve with some pita bread to dip it into this heavenly combination. I like to make my pita bread warm before using it in this recipe.
I often serve tahini and carob molasses as part of a Lebanese meze which includes some other amazing dishes from the Middle East:
