This simple tahini sauce is a creamy, cooling counterpoint to crisp, freshly fried falafel. It can be made a day or two in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator, but bring to room temperature before serving.

Ingredients
  • ½

    cup tahini

  • ¾

    cup boiling water

  • ½

    cup plain whole-milk Greek yogurt

  • 3

    tablespoons lemon juice

  • Kosher salt

  • 1

    tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted

Put the tahini in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk in the water, followed by the yogurt, lemon juice and ½ teaspoon salt. Whisk in the sesame seeds.
