Total Time: 5 mins
Cuisine: Vegan
Serves: 1 cup
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup tahini
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the tahini and water, whisking thoroughly until the mixture becomes smooth and well-integrated.
- Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice to the tahini mixture, stirring continuously to prevent separation.
- Mince the garlic clove finely using a sharp knife or garlic press to release its aromatic oils.
- Add the minced garlic to the dressing, stirring to distribute evenly throughout the mixture.
- Pour in the maple syrup, which will add a subtle sweetness and help balance the tangy lemon and nutty tahini flavors.
- Season with salt to taste, starting with a small pinch and adjusting according to your preference.
- Whisk all ingredients together until the dressing is completely smooth and well-combined, with no visible lumps.
- For best flavor, let the dressing sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the garlic to infuse its flavor.
- Before serving, give the dressing a final whisk and adjust consistency by adding more water if it's too thick.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Tips
- Use fresh ingredients: Always opt for freshly squeezed lemon juice and freshly minced garlic for the most vibrant flavor profile.
- Consistency is key: If the dressing is too thick, add water one teaspoon at a time. If it's too thin, let it sit for a few minutes or add a touch more tahini.
- Garlic hack: For a milder garlic flavor, let the minced garlic sit in the lemon juice for a minute before mixing it into the dressing.
- Customization options: Feel free to add herbs like chopped fresh dill or parsley for an extra flavor dimension.
- Storage tip: Always store in an airtight container and give it a good shake before each use, as natural separation is normal.
- Make ahead: This dressing actually tastes better after sitting for a few hours, allowing the flavors to meld together perfectly.
