Ingredients

• 1 cup tahini
• 0.25 cup lemon juice
• 0.5 cup water
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 medium garlic clove, minced
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and ground cumin.

Step 2

Begin to stir the mixture using a whisk or a fork. The mixture might initially seize up and become thick, but this is normal.

Step 3

Gradually add the water, about a tablespoon at a time, whisking continuously to incorporate it into the tahini mixture. As you add more water, the dressing will become smoother and creamier.

Step 4

Once the water is fully incorporated and the dressing is smooth, add the extra-virgin olive oil. Whisk the dressing until the olive oil is emulsified and the dressing is creamy.

Step 5

Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning as necessary, adding more salt or lemon juice if desired.

Step 6

Transfer the dressing to a clean jar or bottle and store it in the refrigerator. Shake or stir well before each use.
