Is tahini available in Seoul? I am a hummus freak and if it is easy to get chick peas, lemons vinegar etc but not tahini, I will definitely bring some along to get my fix when I have a craving.

tahini = olive oil (or even just ordinary cooking oil ) + roasted seseme seeds, + food processor. Made my own recently, and then I made hummus, it was glorious.

Foreign food market in Itaewon. 2500 won for a bag of dried beans. Soak 'em for at least 3 hours, then boil for 45 mins.

PM me if you want the address.
