Instructions

1
Whisk tahini, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, and salt together in a bowl. The mixture will seize up and become thick and clumpy — this is normal and expected.
2
Add cold water one tablespoon at a time, whisking continuously. The sauce will gradually loosen and become smooth and creamy. Adjust water until you reach the desired consistency: thick and spreadable for a dip, thinner for drizzling.
3
Taste and adjust — add more lemon for brightness, more garlic for punch, more salt for depth. Stir in fresh parsley. Tahini sauce will thicken as it sits; thin with a splash of water if needed. Stores refrigerated for up to 5 days.
