Chef Tips

Makes about ½ cup dressing which will keep for about a week in the fridge.

Tahini is a nutritious creamy nut butter made with roasted sesame seeds that is much used in Middle Eastern cooking. It is packed with B-complex vitamins and a slew of minerals, but if you have any sensitivity to tree nuts, take care. Although sesame is a seed, you should probably check that it doesn’t trigger an allergic reaction with you.
