This tahini dressing is versatile and goes with a wide variety of salad ingredients.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons lemon juice, to taste
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup or honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons ice-cold water, more as needed

Directions

  1. In a liquid measuring cup or jar, combine the olive oil, tahini, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, mustard, maple syrup, salt and several twists of black pepper. Whisk until thoroughly blended.
  2. Add the cold water and whisk again. The dressing should become remarkably creamy. Taste and add more lemon juice (for zing) and pepper if desired. If too thick to drizzle, whisk in more cold water 1 tablespoon at a time. Serve.
  3. This dressing keeps well in the refrigerator, covered, for about 1 week. It may thicken with time
  4. thin it with a little more cool water as needed.
