Notes
If you can’t find tahini, try substituting with sunflower seed butter (sunbutter), or cashew butter!
Different brands of tahini have different consistencies, & some are definitely thicker than others. If you’ve processed or blended everything together and it seems too thick, just thin with a little bit of water at a time until you get the right texture!
This dip should keep in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 4-5 days.
