Tahini Salad Dressing Recipe
Description
The Tahini Salad Dressing Recipe combines 3 tablespoons of tahini, olive oil, pure maple syrup, lemon juice and zest, apple cider vinegar, garlic, and ginger. These ingredients are blended until smooth, with water added gradually to achieve the desired thickness. The richness of tahini melds with the acidity of lemon and vinegar and the subtle sweetness of maple syrup, while garlic and ginger add depth and warmth.
This dressing works well on leafy greens, roasted vegetables, or grain bowls, offering a balanced creamy texture and flavor that enhances fresh ingredients. It can be whisked by hand or made in a blender for smoothness.
The dressing keeps well refrigerated for 1 to 2 weeks and can be made ahead, providing a handy, ready-made addition to meals.
Although freezing is possible, the dressing may separate and will need to be re-blended before use.
Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp. tahini
- 2 Tbsp. olive oil
- 2 Tbsp. pure maple syrup
- ½ lemon juice and zest
- 1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar or rice vinegar
- 1 clove garlic crushed
- ¼ tsp. ginger minced
- 2-3 Tbsp. water to thin out dressing
Instructions
- Add all ingredients, except for the water, to a high-speed blender or food processor and blend for 20-30 seconds, or until smooth. Alternatively, you can whisk together ingredients in a bowl or shake until incorporated in a mason jar.
- Mix in water, a tablespoon at a time, to thin out the dressing until you get your desired consistency.
- Store tahini salad dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1-2 weeks between servings. Enjoy!
Notes
