Creamy Tahini Dressing {Vegan, Gluten Free, Paleo, Keto}
Tahini dressing is thick, rich and deliciously creamy, uses only three store cupboard ingredients and goes with everything. Perfect for lifting vegan and dairy-free dishes, it will rapidly become an everyday staple.
Servings: 25 (makes about 2 cups / 500ml)
Prep Time5 minutes mins
Total Time5 minutes mins
- 250 ml tahini
- 4 tbs olive oil - (use a good quality)
- 1 tsp garlic powder - (optional)
- salt (and optional pepper) - (vary according to taste)
- 250 ml water
Stir the tahini well, as it separates in the jar over time. Mix the the tahini, olive oil and garlic powder (if used) together. Season.
Slowly start to add the water, mixing in with a whisk.
The mixture will initially thin. It will then thicken dramatically and look curdled. DON'T WORRY. Keep adding the water, whisking all the time.
Eventually the thick, curdled mixture will magically transform to a creamy dressing. For thick tahini dressing you will need about 80% of the volume of the tahini in water (200 ml).
The thin tahini dressing will have about the same volume of tahini and water and should have a coating consistency.
- Serving size is one tablespoon.
