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
Total Time5 minutes

Ingredients

  • 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

Instructions

  • 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.

Notes

  • Serving size is one tablespoon.
