Ingredients

Scale
  • 2½ tablespoons lemon juice plus the zest of 1 lemon
  • 1/2 cup tahini
  • 4 tablespoons cilantro, roughly chopped, plus extra (or parsley) to garnish
  • pinch salt
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • about 1/3 cup of water, maybe a little more
  • a few extra herbs for garnish

Instructions

Using a food processor, mix all ingredients together except for the water. While the food processor is running, add water and process until mixture is the consistency of honey. Stop to scrape down as needed. Garnish with a few more herbs. Store in a tightly covered jar, upside down. Mixture will separate. Stir back together if needed.

Notes:

The original recipe called for fresh dill, several tablespoons. Many similar recipes call for parsley or cilantro. Add if you wish.

I found about a tablespoon of Zough spiced this up just a bit. A bit of Za’atar would be excellent in this

Don’t discount what the pinch of salt does for this recipe! It really brightens it up.
