Instructions
-
In a mixing bowl, add the tahini.
-
Pour in about half of the water first.
-
Stir vigorously with a spoon or whisk. The tahini will initially thicken and become pasty.
-
Continue stirring until it starts to loosen and lighten in color.
-
Gradually add the remaining water, a little at a time, while continuously stirring. The consistency will vary depending on the tahini.
-
Keep stirring until you reach a smooth, light, and creamy consistency.
-
Once the desired creamy consistency is achieved and the color has lighted, add salt, cumin, and paprika (or chili powder).
-
Optionally, add a very small pinch of nutmeg. Stir everything well until the spices are fully incorporated.
-
Add the finely minced garlic cloves to the tahini mixture.
-
Pour in olive oil. Add white vinegar.
-
Stir vigorously one last time until all ingredients are perfectly combined and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
-
Serve immediately alongside sandwiches, grilled meats, falafel, or as a dip with fresh vegetables or bread.
