Sessame Tahini Salad Dressing

This is such a quick and easy dressing. I usually just stir it up in a cup with a spoon.

But you can make it even more creamy if you beat the tahini and lemon juice together.  Tahini and lemon get thick when mixed together. You can add as much or little yogurt as you want. I’ve made this using all yogurt for a very creamy dressing and dip, and sometimes with mostly water for a smooth pourable light dressing.

ingredients

1 tablespoon tahini
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1-2 tablespoon plain yogurt
2-5 tablespoons water
pinch of cumin
smoked paprika
salt to taste

 

instructions

  1. Beat (or stir) tahini and lemon juice together
  2. Beat (or stir) in yogurt, 1 tablespoon at a time. Depending on how creamy you want it.
  3. Mix in  2-4 tablespoons water, depending on how thick you want it
  4. Season with cumin, paprika, salt
