Tahini is a popular and versatile Middle Eastern sauce made from seeds that is used in a wide range of recipes, such as falafel wraps, hummus, and salads. Rather than buying store-bought sauce, making it at home is easy and rewarding. Here are some simple steps on how to make tahini sauce at home.

Ingredients you’ll need:

-1/2 cup of tahini paste
-1/4 cup of water
-3 tablespoons of lemon juice
-1 garlic clove (minced)
-1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt
-1 tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, pour tahini paste.

2. Add minced garlic and kosher salt, then whisk until it’s well combined.

3. Gradually add lemon juice, whisking constantly until the sauce is thickened and lightened in color.

4. Once the lemon juice is fully incorporated, start adding water, tablespoon by tablespoon, and whisk the mixture until it becomes smooth.

5. Keep adding water and whisking until you get your desired consistency. If you are making hummus, you would want your tahini to be thicker.

6. Finally, add olive oil and whisk again until it’s fully incorporated.

Tips for perfect tahini sauce:

-When you buy tahini paste, make sure it’s the natural type (not the roasted one) to get the best flavor.

-Use fresh lemon juice and not bottled lemon juice for better taste.

-You can use less or more water depending on how thick or runny you want your tahini sauce to be.

-For a smoother consistency, blend tahini, lemon juice, and garlic in a food processor beforehand, then add water and oil, and blend again.

-Make sure your tahini paste is well-mixed before using it, as it can separate in the jar.

-If your tahini sauce seems too thick, add a splash of water, and if it seems too thin, add more tahini paste.

Conclusion:

Making tahini sauce at home is a simple process that requires only a few and a little time and patience. With this recipe, you can have a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used in many different recipes. Homemade tahini sauce will taste much fresher, more flavorful, and healthier than the store-bought ones, and you can adjust the thickness and flavor to your liking. Now that you know how to make tahini sauce, go ahead and add it to your favorite dishes for an authentic Middle Eastern experience.
