Sweet & Tangy Orange Tahini Dressing

Author - Gena Hamshaw
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 10 minutes
Yields: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 large navel orange
  • 4 tablespoons tahini (60g)
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
  • 1-2 teaspoons maple or agave syrup
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mushard
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon curry powder or ground ginger (optional)

Instructions

  • First, zest 1 tablespoon of orange zest from the orange. Then, place a small, fine-mesh sieve over a liquid measuring cup. Squeeze the orange, allowing the juice to be strained through the sieve. You'll need 1/4-1/3 cup orange juice for this recipe, but it doesn't hurt to reserve a little extra. Any additional juice can be drunk or stored for another use.
  • Whisk together the tahini, apple cider vinegar, white wine vinegar, mustard, syrup, salt, and orange zest till smooth. If using any additional seasoning, add it now.
  • Add the orange juice, whisking as you go. If the dressing is too thick, add a splash of extra orange juice (up to 1/3 cup/80ml total), until it has your desired consistency. Store the dressing in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Notes

Dressing makes 2/3-3/4 cup (160-180ml).
