The Perfect Spice For Giving Tahini Dressings A Colorful Upgrade
BY ANNA STAROPOLI
Tahini is a popular spread that works in a wide range of dishes and while it’s delicious, it comes in a muted beige hue that may not be satisfactory if you want a burst of color.
Turmeric, a spice with a bright orange hue, not only adds some extra health benefits to your tahini dressing, but also a wonderful pop of color.
Just a teaspoon of turmeric is enough to color a quarter cup of tahini, creating a dressing with a lovely yellow hue that will have you dreaming of the sun.
You can add more spices to the dressing or leave it as-is. The final result is sure to pair wonderfully with your salad, or even as a topping for your grilled chicken or veggies.
