INGREDIENTS
- 2-3 tablespoons water
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
- 1 1/2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon tamari
- 1 1/2 tablespoons tahini (see note)
- 1 small clove garlic, halved
- 1/2 teaspoon yellow mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt (or to taste; see note)
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a blender (or a deep cup if using an immersion blender), combine all the ingredients, starting with 2 tablespoons of water. Blend until smooth.
- Taste the dressing and adjust the seasonings as needed. If you prefer a thinner consistency, add more water.
- Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
NOTES
- Tahini Note: For a thicker, creamier dressing, add an extra 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of tahini.
- Salt Note: Depending on the brand and type of tamari you use, you may want to adjust the salt—either omit it or add more to suit your taste.
