| 1 cup | tahini sesame seed paste, I prefer the paste made from light colored seeds |
| 3/4 cup | lukewarm water, use more or less for desired consistency |
| 5 cloves | roasted garlic |
| 1/2 cup | fresh parsley, roughly chopped |
| 1/4 cup | fresh dill, roughly chopped |
| 1/4 cup | fresh lemon juice, or more to taste |
| 1/4 cup | fresh lime juice, or more to taste |
| 1/2 tsp | salt, or more to taste |
You will also need: blender or food processor
Combine tahini paste, lukewarm water, roasted garlic, parsley, dill, lemon juice, lime juice and salt together in a food processor.
Blend or process, scraping sides periodically, until sauce is creamy and well blended. If using a blender, you may need to pause blending and use a long-handled spoon or spatula to break up the thick part of the sauce once every 20-30 seconds; this will keep it from clogging your blender blades.
After a few minutes of blending, sauce will turn into a rich, smooth paste. If mixture is too thick, slowly add more water until it reaches the preferred consistency. You may need quite a bit of water depending on the thickness of your tahini paste. Or you may choose to keep the sauce quite thick, rich and whipped. It's totally a preference thing.
If using tahini to top hummus or a meat dish, keep it thick and creamy. As a condiment for pita or falafel, a more liquid sauce is usually preferred. Taste often during the blending process; add more lemon juice or salt, if desired.
