Ingredients

1 large zucchini peeled (leave the peel on if you don’t mind a green hue) and roughly chopped
2 garlic cloves peeled
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice about 1 lemon
1/4 teaspoon cumin ground
1/4 cup tahini paste
salt to taste

Instructions

Combine all ingredients in a blender and puree until completely smooth. Adjust salt, lemon, garlic, and tahini to taste. Thin with water if you want the consistency more runny. Let stand for 30 minutes to let the flavors meld. Will keep for up to one week, refrigerated.
