Ingredients

  • ½ cup tahini
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice about 2 large lemons
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely minced
  • ¼ cup + 2 tbsp water or more as needed

Instructions

  • Finely mince the garlic and add to a bowl or jar with all ingredients. Start with just 1/4 cup of water.
  • Shake to combine or whisk together really well. Add the extra two tablespoons of water as needed to thin.
  • You may need to use a few more tablespoons, depending on your tahini.
  • Taste and adjust flavors as desired. Tahini can be bitter, so you may want a touch more maple syrup to taste. Serve with your favorite salad & enjoy!

Notes

My favorite tahini is soom foods or the 365 brand from Whole Foods. I recommend one that's nice and runny and not thick. If you use a thicker one, you'll just need a bit more water to thin out the dressing.
