What is Tahini?

Tahini is made of ground sesame and a staple in many Middle Eastern cuisines. It's thick and you've seen it in its simplest form in many of my recipes for homemade hummus. When you add a few extra pantry staples to tahini, you can create the most incredible tahini sauce. That sauce can be used as a salad dressing, for dipping pita bread or pita chips, adding to roasted veggies or throwing it into a wrap etc. It's wildly versatile and really easy to make.

What is in this easy Tahini Sauce:

  • Tahini
  • Lemon
  • Garlic
  • Salt
  • Water
  • a splash of olive oil
