Ingredients

  • ½ cup tahini paste
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • salt
  • black pepper
  • 4-6 tablespoons water if needed

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Set out a small bowl or measuring pitcher.
  2. Add the tahini paste, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, and garlic to the bowl. Stir well to combine.
  3. Lemon juice will often cause the paste to seize up and become firm. If this happens, loosen the sauce with 4-6 tablespoons of water. Salt and pepper as desired.
  4. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

  • Keep the dressing in an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to a week or so. Give it a good shake or stir before drizzling the sauce onto your dishes or using as a dip.
