Ingredients
- 0.25 cup Tahini
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 clove Garlic clove (minced or grated)
- 1 teaspoon Maple syrup or honey
- 3 tablespoons Water (adjust for desired consistency)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Ground black pepper (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, and olive oil until smooth and creamy.
Step 2
Add the minced garlic, maple syrup (or honey), salt, and pepper (if using). Whisk to combine.
Step 3
Gradually add the water, one tablespoon at a time, whisking constantly to reach your desired consistency. For a thicker dressing, use less water; for a thinner, more pourable dressing, use more water.
Step 4
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more lemon juice for tanginess, maple syrup for sweetness, or salt and pepper to enhance the flavor.
Step 5
Transfer the dressing to a jar or airtight container if not using immediately. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Step 6
Shake or stir before using, as the dressing may thicken slightly when chilled.
