This sauce tastes like ranch that's just had touch of a makeover: smooth and nutty with a nice jolt of lemon and herbs. Serve drizzled over a grilled steak, a grain bowl, grilled vegetables, or any green salad, or use as as dip. For the best-tasting tahini, select one that looks smooth and almost drippy in the jar or can. And be sure to completely combine the paste with any oil that's separated to the top before using.
