Ready In: 10 mins
Yields: 2/3 cup
Ingredients
- 1 medium garlic clove, blanched
- 1⁄4 teaspoon sea salt (to taste)
- 1⁄4 cup lemon juice, divided
- 1⁄2 cup tahini paste

- Add the blanched peeled garlic to a mortar along with a ¼ teaspoon of ground sea salt. Crush the ingredients using the pestle until it turns into a paste. To this, add a tiny amount of lemon juice, about ¼ to ½ tsp., and continue mashing until it gets liquid.
- In a mixing bowl, add tahini paste, garlic mixture and the remaining lemon juice. Whisk the ingredients until very well blended and the mixture gets thick. Add cold vegetable broth, a tablespoons at a time, until the desired consistency is reached, whisking constantly. Add Baharat and whisk until well incorporated. Serve right away otherwise transfer to the fridge until needed. Yields 2/3 cup.
