Ingredients

Herbs and Flavorings

  • 3/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 Tbsp chopped fresh dill
  • 2 Tbsp chopped fresh tarragon
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 anchovy fillet (optional)

Liquids and Oils

  • 1/3 cup tahini
  • 3 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/3 cup water

Instructions

  1. Prepare the herbs: Chop the fresh parsley, dill, and tarragon finely to ensure they blend evenly into the dressing, maximizing flavor distribution.
  2. Combine ingredients: In a blender or food processor, add the tahini, chopped herbs, extra-virgin olive oil, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, onion powder, garlic powder, kosher salt, black pepper, and anchovy fillet if using.
  3. Blend the dressing: Start blending the mixture, gradually adding water to reach your desired consistency. Blend until the dressing is smooth and creamy, with herbs fully incorporated.
  4. Taste and adjust: Sample the dressing and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more salt, lemon juice, or water if necessary to balance the flavors and texture.
  5. Serve or store: Transfer the dressing to a jar or airtight container. Serve immediately over salads or vegetables, or refrigerate for up to one week for enhanced flavor development.

Notes

  • The anchovy fillet is optional but recommended for an authentic umami boost.
  • If you prefer a thinner dressing, add extra water a tablespoon at a time during blending.
  • Use fresh herbs for the best vibrant flavor; dried herbs won’t provide the same freshness.
  • Keep the dressing refrigerated and shake well before each use, as separation can occur.
  • Perfect as a dip for raw veggies or as a spread on sandwiches and wraps.
