I bought some chickpeas (first time ever) and want to make hummus, but both the easy and the basic called for tahini. Can I buy that in a jar?

I hope you made the hummus by now lol Yes, tahini is sold in most main stream stores now but you can always find it in specialty markets and health food stores.
