Categories     Dressing     Sauce

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/3 cup tahini
1 medium lemon, juiced ((1 medium lemon yields ~3 Tbsp or 45 ml))
1-2 Tbsp maple syrup ((or sub agave - or honey if not vegan))
1 pinch sea salt ((optional))
1 clove garlic ((minced // optional))
Water ((to thin // ~3-6 Tbsp or 45-90 ml as original recipe is written))

Steps:

  • To a medium mixing bowl, add tahini, lemon juice, and maple syrup. If adding salt and garlic, add now (optional).
  • Whisk to combine. Then slowly add water until creamy and pourable. The mixture may seize up and thicken at first, but continue adding water a little at a time and whisking until creamy and smooth.
  • Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding more lemon juice for acidity, salt for saltiness, or maple syrup for sweetness.
  • Enjoy fresh, or store leftovers in the refrigerator up to 5 days (sometimes longer). This is delicious on things like Salads, Falafel, Fritters, Buddha Bowls, and more!
