Ingredients

1/2 cup tahini
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons tamari you can also use coconut aminos or soy sauce (if not gluten-free)
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon maple syrup
3 small garlic cloves grated
2 teaspoons white or yellow miso
1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons sesame seeds optional
1/4 cup warm water to thin

Instructions

Whisk together tahini, sesame oil, tamari, lime juice, maple syrup, garlic, miso, ginger, and red pepper flakes until smooth. Add sesame seeds if desired.
1/2 cup tahini, 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil, 2 tablespoons tamari, 1/4 cup fresh lime juice, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, 3 small garlic cloves, 2 teaspoons white or yellow miso, 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
Add warm water one tablespoon at a time, whisking until the dressing is smooth and pourable. Taste and adjust. Add more lime for brightness, more tamari for saltiness, or more maple syrup to balance.

Notes

Store in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to one week. The dressing will thicken as it sits. Just add a splash of warm water and whisk or shake to loosen before using.
