Description

This miso maple tahini dressing is ready in 5 minutes and made in one bowl. Add rich flavour to your dishes with quick mess-free prep!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 tbsp miso paste
  • 2 tbsp warm water (or more to thin)
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup (or more to taste)
  • optional: 1/2 tsp sesame oil (provides a richer smoother taste but can omit for an oil-free dressing).

*All the ingredients for this recipe are from our pantry and freezer tips!


Instructions

  1. Either dissolve the miso with the two tbsp warm water first, then add the remaining ingredients. 
  2. Or… add everything together all at once and the warm water will still make sure the miso dissolves smoothly.
  3. Taste and adjust the dressing to your preference. Add more maple syrup for sweetness or lemon juice for tang, and sesame oil for a nutty smooth flavour.
  4. Use immediately, or store in the fridge for about 5-7 days. The sauce will thicken as it sits so just stir in a little more water before using to make it pourable again.

Notes

*Approximate Cost: $1.03 or $0.99 without the sesame oil for 125ml (½ cup).
