• 1 clove Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Ginger
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

Begin by dry roasting the sesame seeds in a skillet over medium-low heat. Stir continuously to prevent burning and roast until they are golden brown and fragrant, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat and let them cool.

Step 2

In a blender or food processor, combine cooled sesame seeds with extra virgin olive oil, coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and garlic.

Step 3

Peel and mince the garlic clove before adding to the blender.

Step 4

Add grated ginger to the blender, ensuring it's evenly distributed.

Step 5

Measure and add honey to the mixture for a hint of sweetness.

Step 6

Add black pepper and salt to taste.

Step 7

Pour in the water to adjust the dressing consistency as desired.

Step 8

Blend all ingredients on medium speed until a smooth, creamy consistency is achieved. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Step 9

Transfer the dressing to a glass jar or bottle. Store in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Step 10

Shake well before serving as the ingredients may separate over time.
