Lemon-Tahini Dressing with Maple & Tamari

Step 1 · Whisk Tahini and Lemon

Whisk the tahini and lemon juice together in a bowl. The mixture will seize and thicken; that is normal.

• ½ cupTahini, well stirred
• ¼ cupLemon Juice, freshly squeezed

Step 2 · Add the Seasonings

Whisk in the maple syrup, tamari, and garlic.

• 1 tbspMaple Syrup
• 1 tbspTamari
• 1 cloveGarlic, finely grated

Step 3 · Thin to Pourable

Add the water a tablespoon at a time, whisking, until the dressing is smooth, creamy, and pourable.

• ¼ cupWater, plus more to thin

Step 4 · Adjust and Store

Taste and adjust: more lemon for brightness, more tamari for salt. Keeps refrigerated in a jar up to 1 week; rewhisk with a splash of water before using.

• 1 tbspTamari
• ¼ cupWater, plus more to thin
