    Spicy Tahini Sauce is a delicious blend of flavors that combines spicy, creamy, and tangy flavors into a wonderful dipping sauce. This delicious sauce is made with creamy tahini, sriracha sauce, and lemon juice. It is perfect as a dipping sauce, salad dressing, and drizzling sauce for hot or cold meals.

    It is made with three ingredients and ready in just 2 minutes. This Perfect flavorful sauce is vegan and gluten-free. 

    We are obsessed with this spicy tahini sauce in our house. I make it every week and sometimes twice a week. It’s good on so many things. It’s fantastic on tacos, burgers, salads, and always a bomb on roasted vegetables. You can even spread it on sandwiches drizzle it on your noodle bowls and it is amazing! It’s a completely versatile dipping sauce, that I know you will love as much as we do!

    Ingredients For Spicy Tahini Sauce 

    This delicious sauce requires just three ingredients that we almost have in our pantry all the time.  

    Tahini: Make fresh tahini sauce at home with roasted sesame seeds or get a good high-quality tahini sauce from the market. Always check the best before the date of the tahini sauce as it gets bitter as it gets older. 

    Lemon Juice: Always use freshly squeezed lemon juice as it will make a difference. 

    Sriracha Sauce: Any hot sauce will do here, which lets you adjust the spice to your personal preference. We love Sriracha sauce as it has a strong chili flavor with a slight tang.

    How To Make The Sauce?

    This sauce is as easy to make as it looks, simply whisk all three ingredients together and it is ready to serve. No blender or any other special equipment is required. Hand whisk will do the task.

    Storage 

    You can freeze this sauce for up to 3 months. (Tip: Freeze the sauce in ice cubes trays to get a single serving for your salad dressing) 

    This sauce will stay well in the refrigerator for 5 to 7 days. Make sure you are storing it in an airtight glass jar.

    Quick Tips 

    • You can also use chili garlic sauce instead of sriracha sauce. It will add a nice garlic flavor and some sweetness to the sauce.  
    • You can use brown sugar to add a sweet flavor. I like it this way with noodle bowls. 
    • Use some water to thin the sauce and use as a dressing for salad.
