Instructions

Combine Ingredients: In a bowl, mix together tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, ground turmeric, ground cumin, maple syrup or honey, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and pepper. I love using the small whisk that is great for mixing in glasses seen in my fav gadgets link.
Adjust Consistency: The mixture might be quite thick. Slowly add water, a tablespoon at a time, whisking after each addition until you reach the desired consistency.
Taste and Adjust: Taste the dressing and adjust seasonings if necessary. If you’d like it sweeter, you can add a touch more maple syrup or honey. If you prefer it tangier, squeeze in a bit more lemon juice.
Store: Transfer the dressing to an airtight container. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. Shake or stir well before using.

Notes

This dressing is versatile and can be drizzled over salads, grain bowls, roasted vegetables, or even used as a dip for fresh veggies or pita bread. Enjoy!
