If you listen to the three co-founders of Seed + Mill (Rachel Simons, Lisa Mendelson, and Monica Molenaar) wax poetic about tahini, even just for a minute, I guarantee that you’re going to spend the rest of the day drizzling the contents of one of their jars of emulsified sesame seed paste over every single thing you eat that day. That’s what happened to me when I visited the tahini and halva experts at their flagship Chelsea Market outpost in New York City.

Their store is the real-life version of their drool-worthy Instagram feed, where they sell goat milk soft-serve with crumbled halva and a tahini drizzle, various flavors of their beloved halva made in Israel, jars of herbed and plain tahini, and custom spice blends like sesame za’atar. I spent some time with Rachel learning about all the delicious (yet overlooked) ways we should use tahini, how they come up with new halva flavors, and what’s next for the artisanal shop. Read on to find out what’s in the works for 2019.

Warrior Fit Testimonials

First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.

Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight. At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does! Thank you!! - Theresa F.

The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.

When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do. It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished. I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy. - Jami L.
