Tahini Dressing

Need a dressing that is light, fresh and fragrant minus all the extra calories? This tahini dressing packs a huge punch for only needing a little bit on your salad, sandwich, or whatever you chose. Just simply blend everything up in a blender and watch how it transforms into a creamy and flavorful dressing.

Yields 4 oz

Ingredients

1/2 cup of Vitacost Certified Organic Unsalted Sesame Tahini, well stirred

1/3 cup water

1/3 cup lemon juice

1 large garlic clove

2 Tbsp. Flat Leaf Parsley, freshly chopped

1/4 tsp Vitacost Himalayan Fine Pink Salt

1/4 tsp Spicely Organics Black Peppercorns- Tin

Directions

In a blender, combine all ingredients above and pulse until mixture is smooth and well combined. Place into airtight container and allow dressing to set for 30 minutes, or until chilled.

Chef’s tip: I recently discovered adding 1/2 tsp of dijon mustard to the dressing adds a great flavor that is much different than the normal tahini (Thanks Elyssa and Jeff)
