Lemon Tahini Dressing Recipe
Description
The Lemon Tahini Dressing blends smooth tahini paste with freshly squeezed lemon juice and finely minced garlic. Cold water adjusts the thickness, creating a balanced, creamy yet pourable sauce. Parsley adds a fresh herbal note, and salt and pepper season the dressing to enhance its flavors.
This dressing works well tossed with leafy greens or as a flavorful complement to roasted vegetables, offering a combination of creamy texture and citrus brightness. The garlic and parsley provide subtle depth without overwhelming the tahini's mild nuttiness.
The dressing tends to thicken when chilled, so stirring in extra cold water before serving helps regain the desired consistency. It can be prepared ahead and stored in the refrigerator, making it convenient for meal prep and easy to customize thickness on use.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup tahini
- ¼ cup lemon juice fresh squeezed
- ¼ cup water cold
- 2 cloves garlic very finely minced
- 1 tablespoon parsley finely minced
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Place all the ingredients in a small bowl and whisk to combine.
- Pour over your favorite salad greens or roasted veggies.
Notes
- When stored in the refrigerator, the dressing may thicken; add a little cold water to adjust consistency before serving.
