  1. Alright, call me ignorant, but what's tahini, tamari, and yaccon? I think I want to try my hand at making this :D Sounds delicious. Any other suggestions for making it? Do you add anything besides the listed ingredients?

  2. Tahini is a sesame seed paste ,
    Tamari is a type of a soy sause ( look in asian section)
    yaccon is a sweet root : honey, agave nectar can substitute for it.
    Everything I have in the ingredients you can find in the health food store. I think that whole foods is the closest to you, I am not sure. Check the internet - maybe there are others around you. :) Enjoy!
    BTW : it does taste spicy. So if you don't like spicy...
