Tahini & Soy Dressing |
|
Ingredients: |
Ingredients: 60g - tahini
2 tbsp - soy sauce
1½ tbsp - mirin (or maple syrup)
1½ tbsp - rice vinegar
|
|
Directions: |
Directions:Whisk all the ingredients for the dressing together with 1 tablespoon of water until you get a very smooth sauce (it will seize a bit at first, but will then become very smooth).
Pour the dressing on to a large plate with a lip, so that it naturally pools into a circle. Drain the cucumbers very well, discarding the liquid, and pile on top of the sauce. Finish with the sesame seeds and spring onions and serve at once. |
