Tip: Buy good quality Tahini. Not all brands taste the same. I prefer organic Tahini.
Earth Island Parmesan can sometimes be found at Walmart or at health food stores.
Alternatives to Soy Sauce:
Coconut Aminos (Soy-Free Seasoning Sauce) is soy-free, gluten-free, non-GMO, No MSG, and vegan.
Liquid Aminos is a natural Soy Sauce Alternative. It is not fermented, gluten-free, and contains no alcohol. It is made of soybean vegetable protein and water. And it does contain sodium.
