Cava Tahini Caesar Dressing Recipe
If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that the right dressing can transform any salad into something extraordinary. This Cava-inspired Tahini Caesar Dressing has become my go-to for adding creamy, zesty goodness to just about anything. Trust me, you’ll want this recipe in your kitchen arsenal!
Ingredients
- ½ cup tahini paste
- ⅓ cup lemon juice
- 2 garlic cloves crushed
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ –½ cup water depending on desired consistency
Instructions
- In a medium-sized bowl, add the tahini paste, lemon juice, crushed garlic, and salt. Use a whisk or fork to combine until the mixture begins to thicken. For an ultra-smooth texture, blend everything in a small food processor or blender, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides.
- After mixing for a couple of minutes, the sauce will thicken into a smooth paste. Slowly pour in water, a little at a time, while whisking continuously. Adjust the water quantity depending on how thick or thin you prefer your dressing.
- Give your dressing a taste test. If you want it zestier, add a touch more lemon juice. If it needs more balance, sprinkle in a bit of salt. Keep adjusting until the flavor is just right.
