TAHINI DRESSING
Tahini (a paste of ground sesame seeds) can now be found in most grocery
stores. Be sure to stir well before measuring out, as it naturally separates in
its jar. This dressing is a perfect match for our Falafel on page 47, but is also
just as delicious over mixed greens.
Makes about 1 cup
1. Insert the chopping blade into the work bowl of the
food processor. With the machine running on High,
drop the garlic through the feed tube. Allow to
process until finely chopped. Stop machine to scrape
down sides. Add the tahini, ¼ cup of water, lemon
juice, honey, salt and pepper.
2. Turn machine on Low to process while adding the oil
through the drizzle hole in the pusher. Continue to
process until desired consistency. If dressing seems
too thick, process in up to an additional ¼ cup of
water. Adjust seasoning to taste.
