FAQ

How much weight difference between level and heaping Tahini?
Up to double. A scraped-flush teaspoon of Tahini reads ~6 g; heaping can climb to 12 g.
What if oil has separated from Tahini in the jar?
Stir it back in before measuring. The total jar mass hasn't changed, but separation would bias any volume measure — scoop after a full stir to match the table.
