This dressing is a real tongue titillator as well as very nourishing. Sesame seeds are high in easily absorbed calcium and miso is a live-culture fermentation which also helps with calcium absorption.

makes about 1 cup

• 1/4 c tahini
• 1/2 lime’s juice
• 1/2 c extra virgin olive oil or sesame oil
• 1 T raw honey
• 1 T miso paste
• 1 t chili powder (optional)
• 1 T toasted sesame seeds

Method:
Blend the tahini, lime juice and oil. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well.

This makes a mineral and nutrient dense dressing which is good for green salads, lightly blanched vegetables or meat. I especially like it as a dip for blanched okra or raw vegetable sticks.
