We had family over during the holidays and we kept making this absolutely delicious garlic and tahini dressing with lemon and olive oil. It was so yummy. This is a light, runny dressing and most likely if your house is like ours, will not last long!
The dressing is gluten free, keto and paleo friendly as well as vegetarian and vegan. What more could you want?
It’s so versatile you can pop it over some freshly picked greens from your garden, or drizzle over roast veggies, chicken and even fish depending on your palate. What ever you decide we hope you love it as much as we do.
Here’s what you’ll need:
- 1/2 cup filtered water
- 1/2 cup raw tahini
- 2 tbsp tamari
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/2 tbsp All natural liquid magnesium or pink himalyan salt
- 1 medium garlic clove
- 1 tbsp white sesame seeds
- 2/3 cup cold-pressed olive oil
- 1 tbsp finely chopped chives
Here’s how to put it together:
- Pop all your ingredients except for the olive oil and chives in a blender.
- Blend on high until smooth, about 30 – 40 seconds.
- With the blender turned down to medium slowly pour in the olive oil until fully combined. FYI although that is the way you are meant to do it I didn’t get too hung up on doing it that way. I was juggling the hand held blender, the jar not moving on the bench as well as pouring the olive oil! I poured in a good bit of olive oil at any one a time, blended and then added more until the amount was used and well combined.
- Pour the dressing into a jar and then fold through the chives.
- Will make about one and a half jars the size in the image or one large jar.
- Enjoy!
Options:
- You could add about 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar as well. I didn’t have any but it would be nice with it added.
- You could use black sesame seeds instead of white to give the dressing a different look.
- You could add some parsely if you wanted to as well as the chives. We have chives growing so we added that and we happened to have some Italian parsely which I added to. However, we are not a big parsely eating family!
- Add a capful of your All natural liquid magnesium to increase your intake.
- Add a capful of your Colliodal Minerals to increase your minerals intake.
Storage:
- It will last for around 2 weeks in the fridge it not consumed before hand!
- I like the small jars (see image above) because they store well in the fridge and it’s easier to pour when you want to use some.
