Ingredients

  • ¼ cup tahini (see note 1)
  • ½ cup lemon juice
  • 2-3 tablespoons Sriracha (see note 2)
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Whisk the tahini and lemon juice in a small bowl until it becomes creamy and smooth. Add more lemon juice or a little water if you want a thinner consistency.
  • Add the Sriracha. Start with 1 -2 teaspoons. Taste and continue adding sriracha until you have the desired spice level.
  • Makes approximately ¾ a cup of dressing.

Notes

  1. Tahini, sesame seed paste, is widely available. Check that you're tahini doesn't contain oil (sometimes used in processing). Or learn to make tahini - it's easy!
  2. I used extra hot sriracha, but it comes in several varieties that give this recipe a flavor twist. Check that the sriracha you use is vegan and gluten-free if this is a requirement. 
  3. The nutritional information is based on 2 tablespoons per serving.
  4. Store this dressing in the refrigerator in an airtight container or jar with a lid for 2 weeks. Stir before serving. Add a bit of lemon juice or water to thin it if needed.
