I am a big believer that if I am going to prepare a sauce, I need to be able to use it multiple ways. Almost every salad dressing that I make is versatile enough that it can be enjoyed in a wrap, as a dip, on top of cooked vegetables, drizzled on a baked potato, I think you get the picture. Tahini is one of my favorite ingredients because it is nutritious, affordable and easy to whisk by hand without using a blender or food processor.

What goes in it?

1/2 cup tahini
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
3/4 cup water
1/4 tsp garlic powder or 1/2 clove finely minced
1 TBSP liquid aminos (soy or coconut), soy sauce, tamari, or nama shoyu

Blend or whisk - add any other spices that you enjoy. I personally put pepper in just about everything. You may like citrus juice, coriander, mustard or anything. Don't be scared to experiment. If you want it thicker use less liquid. Should store for five days in an air tight container.
