how to make tahini yogurt sauce

How to Make Yogurt Sauce

• Combine greek yogurt with tahini and some sort of acid (I used lemon juice. You can also use vinegar or lime juice).
• Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil to add extra richness and flavor.
• Sprinkle on your favorite herbs, seeds, nuts, etc.

To dress up my Yogurt Dip I sprinkled on some toasted cumin seeds, chipotle chili powder, pomegranate seeds and chopped fresh parsley.

Here are some other great topping ideas and mix-ins for your sauce:

• Sesame Seeds
• Toasted Pine Nuts
• Coriander
• Cayenne
• Za’atar
• Dill
• Mint
• Grated Garlic
• Chickpeas
• Calabrian Chiles
• Harissa
• Mustard Seeds
• Grated Cucumber
