Ingredients
  

Caesar Dressing

  • ¼ cup tahini
  • 1 tbsp capers, very finely diced
  • 1-2 large cloves of minced garlic (depends on how "garlicy" you like it)
  • 2-3 tbsp lemon juice (juice of ½ a large lemon)
  • ½ tsp dijon mustard
  • Salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
  • cold water to adjust the consistency

Optional

  • 1 tsp caper brine
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast or vegan parm

Instructions
 

  • Start by finely dicing the capers until they become almost like a paste.
  • In a small bowl or jar, add tahini, caper paste, garlic, lemon juice, dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. (if adding caper brine and nooch, add now as well)
  • Whisk thoroughly to combine all the ingredients. The dressing will likely be quite thick, depending on the consistency of your tahini.
  • Next, add cold water 1 tbsp at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
  • If desired, blend the dressing instead of whisking it for a smooth and whipped consistency.
  • Serve on your favourite Caesar salad, and enjoy!
