Tahini dressing is a versatile condiment made primarily from tahini paste (ground sesame seeds), water, lemon juice, and garlic.

Tahini Dressing FAQ
When it comes to making Tahini Dressing, the key lies in balancing the ingredients. If too much tahini is added, the dressing may turn out too thick, while excessive lemon juice may overpower the delicate, nutty flavor of tahini. Some people might struggle with achieving the right consistency or may complain about a bitter taste, which is often due to over toasted sesame seeds or old tahini paste. To get the most out of the dish, always use fresh tahini and adjust the ingredients according to your taste. Add water gradually until you achieve your preferred consistency. Note that the dressing will thicken in the refrigerator. A great tip to maximize the flavor of the tahini dressing is to combine the ingredients using a blender, this will result in an ultra-creamy texture. Pair it with Mediterranean dishes for a true Middle Eastern experience!
