Special Precautions and Tips:
- If you don't have unhulled tahini, you can use regular tahini. However, the flavor will be slightly less nutty.
- If you don't have a graham cracker pie crust, you can use a pre-made pie crust.
- Let the pie cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will give the filling time to set and firm up.
- Store leftover pie in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
