LEMON TAHINI SALAD DRESSING

Lemon Tahini Salad Dressing image

Delicious over mixed greens. Add cucumbers and radishes if you like. I found the dressing to be a bit runny, so make sure your tahini is rich and full, if not, don't add as much water. Either way, the taste is yummy and not your ordinary dressing. As chef blucoat chef #225426 so eloquently pointed out, this recipe comes from Gourmet 2002. I had written it down on a deposit slip and failed to note where it came from. Thanks Blucoat.

Time 3m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1/4 cup tahini
1/4 cup water
2 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
1 garlic clove (minced)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne

Steps:

Mix ingredients in a blender ( or be lazy like me and put all ingredients in a safely secured jar and shake like the dickens. I didn't add additional water) adding more water to create the thickness you like, chill at least 3 hours.
Serve over fresh geens, cucumbers and radishes.

Tips:

For a smoother dressing, use a high-powered blender or food processor.
If you don't have tahini, you can substitute another nut or seed butter, such as almond butter or sunflower seed butter.
To make a vegan dressing, use agave nectar or maple syrup instead of honey.
If you like a spicy dressing, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
This dressing is best used fresh, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Lemon tahini dressing is a versatile and flavorful dressing that can be used on a variety of salads and other dishes. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you're looking for a light and refreshing dressing for a summer salad or a creamy and flavorful dressing for a roasted vegetable salad, lemon tahini dressing is a great option.
