Lemon Tahini Dressing (Oil-Free!)
The Lemon Tahini Dressing is an oil-free, creamy dressing featuring raw tahini, fresh lemon juice, garlic, and spices. Its texture thickens when chilled but can be thinned with water for drizzling. The combination of ingredients creates a tangy, savory dressing with a rich sesame flavor, suitable as both a dip and a salad dressing.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup tahini raw
- 1/4 cup water , plus more to thin
- 6 tablespoons lemon juice about 4 lemons, fresh
- 3 cloves garlic or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt sea salt
- black pepper freshly ground
Instructions
- Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl or mason jar and whisk well to combine. Add extra water one tablespoon at a time, until the dressing is as thin as you'd like it to be, and adjust any seasonings to your taste.
- This dressing will thicken up when stored in the fridge. It's great as a dip, but if you want to thin it for a salad dressing, just add another tablespoon of water and stir until pourable again. This should last up to a week in the fridge.
