Does anyone know what tahini (sesame paste) is in Chinese? Both pinyin and hanyu would be helpful, if possible.

Thanks!

Hi all, I’m starting to use this group to post recipes. The goal is to learn some recipe, cooking, and food vocab.  If you baidu the name of your favourite dish along with 食谱 (shípŭ, recipe) or 做法 (zuòfă, method) you will come up with a lot of recipes.  (Pinyin works just fine in Baidu as well, I’ve just discovered – it takes the pinyin and gives you suggestions in characters.) Feel free to add corrections/suggestions both to the recipe or the Chinese.

Would this be the correct way to say, "I want one spring roll" at a restaurant?

我要一个spring roll (I can't find the characters for spring roll!)

Is the first part of the sentence correct? Pretend that the characters for spring roll is after 一个!
