Traditionally, Caesar dressings are made using egg yolks, anchovies and parmesan cheese. This version uses tahini as the base instead and provides a different take on the classic. I’ll put an anchovy in if I have one in the fridge, but it is by no means a requirement. I use this dressing on my crispy chickpea caesar.
ingredients
½ cup tahini
3 large cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons capers, chopped
2 tablespoons caper juice
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
Juice of 1 lemon
3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup water
method
Whisk together all of the ingredients until smooth. If the dressing is too thick, whisk in 1 tablespoon of water at a time until pourable.
