Maple Mustard Tahini Dressing Ingredients
- ¼ cup tahini
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 3 to 4 tablespoons water, or more for a thinner consistency
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- Kosher salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the tahini, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, and lemon juice until smooth and creamy.
- Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic to infuse the dressing with a fresh and mild pungent flavor.
- Adjust Consistency: Slowly whisk in 3 to 4 tablespoons of water to reach your desired consistency; add more water if you prefer a thinner dressing.
- Season to Taste: Add kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper incrementally, tasting as you go to balance the flavors perfectly.
- Serve or Store: Use immediately as a dressing or sauce, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to one week. Stir well before using if separated.
Notes
- Adjust the thickness by adding more water or tahini depending on preference.
- This dressing pairs well with green salads, roasted veggies, grain bowls, or as a dip for fresh veggies.
- Keep refrigerated and consume within a week for optimal freshness.
- Use fresh garlic to avoid overpowering bitterness.
- Maple syrup can be substituted with honey for a less vegan option.
