Lemon-Tahini Dressing

Lemon-Tahini Dressing

NUTRITIONAL HIGHLIGHTS

Tahini, a paste made from ground sesame seeds, is a rich source of mono and poly-unsaturated fatty acids, both of which are beneficial for heart health.

With roughly 3 grams per tablespoon, tahini is an excellent plant-based protein option.

DIRECTIONS

  • Combine tahini, lemon juice and zest, water, garlic, and coriander in a small mixing bowl and whisk to combine.

  • Whisking constantly, slowly pour in olive oil and mix until fully emulsified. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

  • Store dressing in an airtight, sealed container for up to one week. Cold dressing may require a small addition of water to achieve initial consistency.
