Green Tahini Sauce

Green Tahini Sauce

  • 1/2 cup Tahini
  • 1 lemon (juice + zest)
  • 3 Tbs of vinegar (apple cider, red wine, white wine all work well)
  • 1 Tbsp cumin
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 2 handfuls of fresh cilantro and parsley
  • cold water (as needed) 
  • salt

Throw all of the ingredients into a food processor and puree until smooth.  The tahini will "seize" (turn into a super thick paste).  Begin to add small amounts of cold water (1 Tbs at a time) and continue to pulse until sauce "relaxes" and reaches desired consistency.  Store in the fridge for up to a week.  Drizzle over salads, roasted veggies, seafood, chicken, or my personal favorite, use as a dipping sauce for Sweet Potato Falafel!
