Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.25 cup tahini (sesame seed paste)
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 clove garlic (minced or grated)
- 2 tablespoons water (adjust for consistency)
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the tahini, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. Whisk thoroughly until smooth.
Add the olive oil, honey, and minced garlic. Continue to whisk the mixture until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
Gradually add water, one tablespoon at a time, while whisking. Adjust the amount of water to achieve your desired consistency (thicker for dip, thinner for dressing).
Season the dressing with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix well and taste, adjusting seasoning if necessary.
Transfer the Paleo Tahini Mustard Dressing to a small jar or serving container. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Shake or stir well before each use as the ingredients may separate over time.
