Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp. white miso
  • 2 Tbsp. tahini
  • 3 Tbsp. lemon juice fresh
  • 2 Tbsp. rice vinegar unseasoned
  • 2 tsp. pure maple syrup
  • 1 Tbsp. water (if needed to thin)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Place all ingredients (except water) in a small high-speed blender.* (I use a NutriBullet which works great.) Blend for 20-30 seconds or until smooth.
  2. Adjust the thickness if desired. The consistency can vary depending on how runny your tahini is. Add a splash of water or more lemon juice if you prefer.

Notes

  • *No blender? No problem! Whisk the ingredients together in a small bowl until smooth. (But I do suggest using a small blender if you have one. It creates an amazing, ultra-creamy texture!)
  • Variations: Blend in 1/4 tsp. onion powder, 1/4 tsp. garlic powder, a fresh garlic clove, roasted garlic, freshly grated ginger, lemon zest, tamari, coconut aminos, or black pepper. Or stir in sesame seeds or fresh herbs after blending.
  • Yield: Recipe makes a heaping 1/2 cup dressing. (I often make a double batch and store it in a sealed glass jar in the fridge. It keeps for about 5-6 days.)
