Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup tahini
  • 3 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup water plus more as needed
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Whisk tahini and lemon juice together in a bowl — the mixture will seize up and look clumpy at first.
  • Add garlic and continue whisking, gradually adding water, until the sauce smooths back out.
  • Add more water as needed to reach a pourable, drizzle-able consistency.
  • Season with salt and store in the refrigerator for up to a week.
