I've been playing with tahini sauces. A decent variation on this one: replace the water with yogurt, and the tamari with broth. Add 1 teaspoon ground Aleppo red pepper. Two recipes!
Savory Tahini Gravy
Recipe By:
Serving Size: 4
Preparation Time: 0:00
Categories: Condiment Lower Carbs Vegan
1 cup tahini -- (sesame butter)
2/3 cup water
1/4 cup tamari -- or regular soy sauce
2 cloves garlic -- minced or crushed to a paste
Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan over heat and stir constantly until thick and hot; avoid boiling it, though. If it gets too thick, you can add a little more water. A wire whisk is best for this task.
Serve over whatever you can think of...especially good on marinated and broiled tofu, still-crunchy steamed veggies, and a big ole bowl of medium grain brown rice.
Serves: 4, or more
Preparation time: 15 minutes
ChupaNote: I put everything in the blender (or food processor) and mixed thoroughly. Heated it at 30% in the microwave. It made a terrific dip without heating it up, at room temperature. I added 1 teaspoon ground Aleppo red pepper. Next time, I'll add a handful of chopped parsley/cilantro/mint and thin with pasta water as a pasta sauce and toss with a handful of minced red/yellow/orange baby bells and chopped red onion or shallots.
