Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup raw tahini
  • 1 garlic clove crushed (for a milder, balanced flavor)
  • ¾ cup cold water (adjust to reach your desired consistency)
  • Juice of 1/2 medium lemon
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup fresh parsley chopped, (optional, for a fresh herbal touch)

Method
 

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the tahini, garlic, water, lemon juice, and salt until smooth and creamy.
  2. Stir in parsley if using.
  3. Taste and adjust: add a little more tahini to thicken or more water to thin.
  4. Store in the fridge for up to a week.

Notes

Serving Suggestions:
Drizzle over fresh vegetables or salad, use as a dip for warm pita bread, or as a sauce for grilled meats. Its creamy, nutty flavor adds a delicious Middle Eastern touch to any meal!
Kid-Friendly Tip: If your little ones are sensitive to garlic, you can omit the garlic entirely or replace it with a tiny bit of maple syrup for a slightly sweeter sauce they'll love dipping their veggies in."
