PS Brian's Sweet & Smoky All-Purpose Dressing
Chefs: Jessica and Brian Krock, The Krocks
Makes: 1 ¼ c
Prep Time: 5 min
INGREDIENTS
3 to 4 pitted Medjool dates (about 60 g)
½ c water
½ c lemon juice
2 T tahini
¼ to ½ t Liquid Smoke
¼ t salt (optional)
DIRECTIONS
Place all the ingredients into a high-speed blender.
Blend until dates are completely incorporated, about 60 seconds.
Pour into a container and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
TIP
For a smaller ¼ batch, combine 1 pitted Medjool date, 2 T water, 2 T lemon juice, ½ T tahini, and 5 drops of liquid smoke into a small blender/bullet. This will not work in a larger blender because there will not be enough to blend. When making a ¼ batch, we use the 8 oz blending cups that work with our Ascent Series Vitamix. Please note that these cups only work with that blender.
