This lemon 🍋 tahini dressing is so easy to whip up and is the perfect dressing for grains bowls, salads, veggies, you name it! Recipe 👇🏻
Lemon Tahini Dressing
* 1/2 cup well stirred tahini I ❤️ @socotahini
* 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, or more to taste
* 1 teaspoon Celtic sea salt
* Few twists of freshly ground pepper
* 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
* 1/3 cup filtered water, plus more to thin out
Directions:
In a medium bowl, whisk to combine 1/2 cup tahini, 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt, and a few twists of pepper. The mixture will be super thick, and resemble paste, but don’t fret. Whisk in 1 tablespoon olive oil and then add the 1/3 cup water and whisk to combine well until the dressing is smooth. Feel free to add more water to get dressing to a desired consistency, especially if you want to thin it out to be more pourable.
Then, taste and adjust your seasonings. If you prefer a brighter flavor, add more lemon. If it’s too bitter, stir in 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon maple syrup or honey. And if the flavor is too sharp, mellow it with 1/2 to 1 teaspoon olive oil.
Storage: Store leftover dressing in a glass container with a lid in the refrigerator. Dressing will keep for 5-7 days. The dressing will thicken as it sits in the fridge, but don’t fret, as it tastes amazing and will melt into whatever you top it with. Make sure to whisk well before using to incorporate everything. I usually take the dressing out 1/2 hour before using, so it’s easier to whisk together.
