For Eden Grin­sh­pan, every­day cook­ing means say­ing yes to more share­able and deli­cious dish­es, more veg­gies, and more fun in the kitchen. Tahi­ni Baby invites you into Grinshpan’s world and offers her joy­ful, play­ful, and always for­giv­ing approach to Mid­dle East­ern− and Mediter­ranean-inspired meals. Packed with lay­ers of tangy, tart, rich, and creamy ingre­di­ents, espe­cial­ly Grinshpan’s #1 fave (tahi­ni!), these dish­es lend them­selves to end­less mix­ing and match­ing.

From nosh­es and break­fast to hot new sides and boss veg, in addi­tion to condi­ments, dips, and pick­les that add pops of fla­vor, these dish­es will bring ease and next-lev­el tasti­ness to any and every meal. Try the Egg­plant Schnitzel driz­zled with Gar­licky Tahi­ni, mop up the Lemon-Braised Leek Masabacha with Za’atar Laf­fa, and enjoy Haris­sa-Roast­ed Cau­li­flower with a fla­vor-packed Pre­served Lemon Toum. Sim­ple-to-make desserts such as Straw­ber­ry Rhubarb Rose Tahi­ni Crum­ble and Sage-Hon­ey Semi­fred­do round out the per­fect, sat­is­fy­ing din­ner — or mid­day snack. Whether you’re throw­ing togeth­er a casu­al gath­er­ing, putting togeth­er a lunch or brunch of made-in-advance com­po­nents, or feed­ing a fam­i­ly, Grinshpan’s approach to cook­ing is hap­py-mak­ing, ver­sa­tile, and always guar­an­teed to wow.
