Tahini Dressing

Recipe
Written By Nicki Carolane

This tahini dressing is so creamy and delicious! A great plant based alternative to the your everyday mayonnaise.

Tahini is relatively low in calories but high in fiber, protein, and an assortment of important vitamins and minerals. So not only tasty but also great for your health!

This dressing is perfect drizzled over any salad of your choice or a delicious side kick to that crispy oven baked potato.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of tahini

  • 1 cup of water

  • Juice of 1 lemon

  • 1 TBS maple syrup

  • pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)

  • In a liquid measuring cup or jar add tahini, lemon juice and maple syrup

  • Whisk until thoroughly blended.

  • Add the cold water, and whisk again.

  • The dressing should become remarkably creamy. Taste, and add more lemon juice (for zing) and cayenne pepper if desired.

If your dressing is too thick to drizzle, whisk in more cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time.

This dressing will keep well in the refrigerator, covered, for about 1 week. It will thicken with time; simply thin it with a little more cool water as needed.

Enjoy! x
