Tarator is made with tahini (sesame paste), lemon juice, garlic, and a touch of salt. This versatile creamy sauce is bursting with flavor. Traditionally used as a mezze or appetizer dip, it can also be drizzled over grilled meats, roasted vegetables, blended with chickpeas or even used as a flavorful salad dressing.
