Then there's Tahini Sauce.
I make Tahini Sauce thusly:
1/2 C Tahini
2-3 peeled raw garlic cloves
Juice of 1 lemon
S&P
touch of cumin (optional)
touch of cayenne
EVOO
Process in a food processor (actually I start by processing the garlic cloves, then add the tahini, then the rest of the ingredients).
Then I add water to get the consistency of sauce that I am looking for, not thin, not too thick. Depending on the lemons, I might add a touch more lemon juice to get the right flavor combination.

Thanks deltadoc, your tahini sauce sounds lovely..
I have a vita-mix also so there's no problem with the grinding, its the tahini ingredients I'm most interested in..
When you make your version of tahini do you just use the seeds and oil or do you add other ingredients to your mixture?
