Most commercial salad dressings, I am sorry to say, are filled with chemicals. Choose them carefully, and consider making your own. It’s easier than you think.
Dressings and sauces are an opportunity to perfect and balance vegetables with nutrient-dense oils, vegetable proteins, and spices. Here’s a nice tahini dress to serve over cooked or raw greens, sprouts, carrots, peppers, and scallions. I am waiting impatiently for my Thai basil to grow to add to this one.
Quick & easy.

Hi Millie! Bon Apetit!
Hi!
Is the sesame oil the dark (toasted) oil or light version ?
Either, but I tend to use the darker toasted for flavor more often than I use light. It may not be the cleanest choice (toasting adds a bit of AGES) but I’ll keep my liver healthy & all will be well!
