INGREDIENTS
1 cup water
1 cup tahini
garlic, grated to taste
lemon juice to taste
salt to taste
pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS
Beat one cup of water into one cup of tahini.
This seems to take forever, but eventually you will have a creamy sauce—try using a long-tined fork.
Season to taste with grated garlic, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
Cover and refrigerate.

Variations of this sauce include plain yogurt—
mix 1 part sauce as described above with 1 part yogurt—for a fabulous salad dressing.

Other variations include fresh herbs, especially parsley.
