A nice combination of lemon, sesame and garlic. I couldn't get any tahini, so I used peanut butter and sesame oil in it's place. The interesting thing about this recipe is that the flavor changes depending on what you eat it with. We tried corn tortilla chips, black sesame seed artisan crackers, plain saltine crackers and celery sticks. I preferred the saltine crackers and celery. A very healthy dip alternative. Great recipe Skippy !!! :) I made this for the "Something Old, Something New" event, March 2009.
