Quick & Easy Tahini Sauce image

This is wonderful atop recipe#434826 instead of the plain tahini! Tahini or tashi as it is called in Cyprus, is a paste made from ground sesame seeds. It is usually very thick and if left a long time you will see that oil is gathered on top. You do not have to worry about that you just mix it and it is just fine. The full version is one of the many dishes served as Cypriot mezes. Original recipe from http://humus101.com.

This sauce was a bit too thick for my taste, but the flavor was spot-on. I'll definitely be making it again, but I'll thin it out with a little water next time.

Good recipe, but I had to add a bit more lemon juice to brighten up the flavor.

I've tried many tahini sauces, but this one is by far the best. It has the perfect balance of flavors and is so versatile. I've used it on everything from grilled chicken to roasted vegetables.
