My Go-To Salad Dressing (5 Ingredients).- To make this delicious tahini dressing you just need 5 ingredients, a bowl and a spoon and is ready in less than 5 minutes. It's my go-to salad dressing!

I don’t know why I haven’t shared this amazing recipe with you guys yet because I make it almost every single day. Well, I posted my simple salad with oil free tahini dressing recipe before, but I’ve improved the recipe. I use it as a salad dressing, but I also add it to many savory dishes instead of the oil.

It’s ready in less than 5 minutes and you only need 5 ingredients to make it. Besides, the equipment used is so simple, you just need a bowl and a spoon, that’s all, it’s easy peasy!

Tips:

  • I prefer raw tahini, but roasted tahini is okay too.
  • Feel free to add any other seed or nut butter instead of the tahini. You can also use any other healthy fat. Add more or less water if needed.
  • If you can’t find nutritional yeast, add less water.
  • Tamari or soy sauce can be used instead of the salt.

    I love the fact that you say how long something can be safely store in the refrigerator if it is not all used at that time. Thanks for the recipes and the nutritional info about the recipes as well. Love your blog!

    Is there a certain tahini brand you prefer? The one I bought was a little bitter.

      Hi Nicole! I live in Spain, so I use a Spanish brand. Raw tahini is a little bitter. Toasted/roasted tahini tastes much better, although I prefer raw tahini because is less processed. You could also make your own tahini: http://simpleveganblog.com/how-to-make-tahini/ Hope it helps! 🙂

    Can this be made without the yeast? I have a sensitivity to yeast…and I am trying to eliminate it as much as possible. Love your site and your recipes…your flavors seem to always be on point! My husband and kids who are not Vegan yet love the dishes I’ve made from your recipes! Thank you so very much!

      Hi Monique! I’ve never made it without the yeast, but I think it should work. I would add some mustard instead. Thanks a lot for your kind words 🙂 Have a nice day!
