This tahini-based sauce serves as the foundation for mezes like hummus and baba ghanouj throughout much of the Mediterranean, but it’s also a wonderful sauce in its own right, showing its versatility by adding a nutty, lemony hit to the köfte or to vegetables or fish.
- 1/2 cup well-stirred tahini
- 1/2 cup warm water
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 small garlic clove
-
Purée all ingredients with 1/2 tsp salt in a blender until smooth.
Cooks’ note: Sauce keeps, chilled, 1 week.
