This tahini goddess dressing is similar to several commercial brands. It is excellent on salad and rice or as a marinade.
Ingredients
[edit | edit source]- 1⅓ cup canola oil
- ⅔ cup water
- 6 tbsp tahini
- 6 tbsp cider vinegar
- 4 tbsp lemon juice
- 5 tbsp soy sauce
- 6 cloves garlic
- ⅛ tsp xanthan gum
- 2 tbsp sesame seeds, toasted
- 2 tbsp parsley
- 2 tbsp chives
Procedure
[edit | edit source]- In a blender, combine the oil, water, tahini, vinegar, lemon juice, soy sauce, garlic, and xanthan gum. Blend on high for about 2 minutes. You will see a change in the texture of the mixture as the xanthan gum starts to work, producing a very smooth, creamy appearance.
- Add the sesame seeds, parsley, and chives. Blend on low, just until mixed.
Notes, tips, and variations
[edit | edit source]- Xanthan gum is available in many grocery stores in the baking or grain sections.
- Be careful with the xanthan gum; too much and the mixture will turn into a rubbery glob, too little and the oil and water will separate.
- If brand substitutions are made, the recipe may need adjustment.
- This dressing has a very strong flavors that need to be balanced. When in balance, the flavor really explodes.
