Notes
- For the smoothest texture, use a high-quality, well-stirred tahini before measuring.
- Freshly squeezed lemon juice gives the dressing a brighter, fresher flavor than bottled juice.
- If the dressing is too thick after chilling, whisk in 1–2 tablespoons of warm water until it reaches your desired consistency.
- Taste before serving and adjust the seasoning with extra lemon juice, maple syrup, or tamari to suit your preference.
- For a gluten-free version, use tamari or certified gluten-free soy sauce.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. Stir well before each use, as natural separation may occur.
- This dressing is delicious on salads, grain bowls, roasted vegetables, quinoa, wraps, baked potatoes, and as a dip for fresh vegetables.
- For the best flavor, let the dressing chill for 20–30 minutes before serving so the ingredients have time to blend together.
