Notes
Here are some expert tips for perfecting Tahini Sauce:
Choose Smooth Tahini: Opt for a smooth, creamy variety of tahini, either homemade or store-bought, to ensure a rich and delightful sauce texture.
Lemon Juice Balance: Tahini Sauce is celebrated for its tangy kick. If you find 3 tablespoons of lemon juice too strong, adjust to suit your taste.
Consistency Adjustment: This recipe creates a thick, creamy sauce. For a lighter, more fluid consistency, ideal for dressings, simply modify the water amount.
Mind the Salt: Check if your tahini paste is pre-salted. Adjust the salt in the recipe accordingly to fine-tune the flavor balance.
