About Tahini dressing

Tahini dressing is a creamy, flavorful condiment made primarily from tahini, a paste of ground sesame seeds, blended with lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, and water. Often associated with Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine, it adds a rich, nutty taste to salads, grain bowls, and roasted vegetables. Tahini dressing is a nutrient-dense option, boasting healthy fats, plant-based protein, and essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and iron from sesame seeds. The inclusion of olive oil contributes heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. While it is high in calories due to the natural oils in sesame and olive, it remains a wholesome choice when used in moderation. Lemon juice provides vitamin C and a refreshing tang, while garlic can offer potential immune-boosting properties. This versatile and nourishing dressing is a great way to enhance dishes while supporting a balanced, flavorful diet.
