Maybe poppy seed or chia seed?

I too saw that post about the guy lamenting that he had to go on reddit to find good recommendations for a sesame substitute.
Yeah, I want to know the answer to that too, but I don’t want to go to reddit. So, I’m asking Lemmy.
I don’t think he said what he was using the ingredient for so it’s hard to suggest one.
I, too, wanted to know the recommendation he was given. I’m nosey!
Hummus I think. So really what he wanted was a tahini substitute.
Whats wrong with seseme?
Nothing. I like seseme, just wondering if there is anything else that taste similar that I can use in a pitch.
Maybe an allergy or a cost thing, I think they are a little expensive though if Chia is on the table that cant be it
maybe flaxseed? Not as nutty, but they’re somewhat similar. Crushed peanuts could work too.
What’s a good way to crush the peanuts? Rolling pin and a Ziplock bag?
A mortar and pestle, or even a very quick whir in a blender would work.
Thanks!
In salad I use pumpkin seeds. Bigger but tasty.
Maybe finely chopped peanuts? Tastes similar. Cut to correct form factor to sell illusion.
I feel like what would honestly be easiest would be to just have some tahini on hand as a backup. It is sesame so it’s not a true substitute, but also it lasts for ages so there isn’t a huge reason to not have some around.
Like sesame for the taste? I don’t like sesame so not sure what else tastes like it
Yeah, in food, like for burger buns or salads or something.
