Ingredients

• 1 1/3 Cup Canola Oil
• 2/3 Cup Water
• 6 T Tahini
• 6 T Cider Vinegar (Heinze)
• 4 T Lemon Juice (RealLemon)

Procedure

2. Add the final three ingredients and blend on low, just until mixed.

Notes, tips and Variations

• Xanthan gum is available in grocery stores, look in the natural grains section. It is a white powder, about $10 for an 8oz bag.
• Be careful with the Xanthan gum; too much and the mixture will turn into a rubbery glob, too little and the oil and water will separate.
• If brand substitutions are made then the recipe may need adjustment. This dressing has a very strong flavors that need to be balanced. When in balance, the flavor really explodes.
