Steps:
- In a bowl, mix all the ingredients together. The tahini mixture will become watery, then it will shrink, and then again it will become a bit loose while you mix. If your tahini dressing is too thick, add a little bit of cold water and mix again. Adjust ingredients to your liking.
- Chop the tomatoes and the cucumber into cubes. Add the tahini dressing and mix the salad.
- Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.

CUCUMBER TOMATO TAHINI SALAD
Steps:
- For the dressing, make my lime tahini sauce recipe by blending tahini paste, lime juice, water, kosher salt together, then stir in a good cup of parsley. You can do this one night ahead of time and save it covered in the fridge. (If the tahini sauce becomes thicker as it sits in the fridge, you can stir in more lime juice or water to loosen it).
- To make the salad, in a medium mixing bowl, combine the tahini sauce with the diced cucumbers, tomatoes, and jalapeno. Add the Aleppo-style pepper, if using. Mix well. Taste and add salt to your liking. And if needed, add more lime juice.

TOMATO SALAD WITH CUCUMBER AND GINGER
The classic combination of tomatoes and cucumbers gets new life here from a lively dressing of lime zest and juice, fish sauce and serrano chile inspired by Thai papaya salad. It's a study in contrasts: Bracing on its own, the salty-spicy vinaigrette is mellowed by fresh summer tomatoes and cucumbers. Large pieces of fresh ginger add a punch of spice without the heat, while cilantro and basil serve as fresh, cooling elements. Enjoy with red curry chicken, coconut rice and a nice crisp beer.

Steps:
- Create stripes on the exterior of the cucumbers by running the tines of a fork along the length of the skin. Halve the cucumbers lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces. Transfer to a colander and toss with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon sugar.
- Meanwhile, make the dressing: In a large bowl, whisk together the lime zest and juice, fish sauce, coconut oil, chile, garlic and the remaining 2 teaspoons sugar.
- Just before serving, add the tomatoes, basil, cilantro, red onion, ginger, cucumbers and half the nuts to the dressing; toss to coat. Transfer to a bowl or platter, top with remaining nuts and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Stir the tahini and lemon juice together until well blended. Add the rest of the ingredients except the cucumbers and stir to blend.
- Allow the mixture to stand at room temperature for about 30 minutes. (If you put it in the refrigerator, it will thicken up). If it is too thick to pour, you can use it as a dip for the cucumbers OR you can thin it out with room temperature water (NOT cold) which is what I do.
- Peel the cucumbers and slice them into rounds. Put them in a large bowl and pour the dressing over them. Toss to coat.
Tips:
- For the freshest flavor, use ripe, in-season cucumbers and tomatoes.
- If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of dried dill or basil.
- To make the salad ahead of time, prepare the cucumbers and tomatoes and store them in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Make the dressing and store it separately.
- When ready to serve, toss the cucumbers and tomatoes with the dressing and sprinkle with the herbs.
- Serve immediately or chill for a few hours for even better flavor.
Conclusion:
This cucumber and tomato salad with tahini dressing is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that is perfect for summer gatherings. With its simple ingredients and easy preparation, this salad is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
