A quick and creamy vegan Miso Tahini Sauce made in just 5 minutes. This versatile sauce combines rich tahini, savory miso paste, and nutritional yeast for a deliciously smooth and flavorful condiment perfect for pasta, roasted veggies, grain bowls, and more.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 2 Tbsp miso paste
  • 6 Tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • Approx. 6 Tbsp hot water
  • Salt + pepper to taste (optional)

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Add the tahini, miso paste, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, and hot water into a food processor.
  2. Blend Until Smooth: Blend all ingredients together until the mixture is creamy and smooth. This ensures even flavor distribution and a luscious texture.
  3. Adjust Seasoning: Taste the sauce and add salt and pepper if needed, although the miso paste generally provides sufficient saltiness.
  4. Modify Consistency: If you prefer a thinner sauce, blend in an extra tablespoon of water gradually until the desired consistency is achieved.
  5. Serve or Store: Use the sauce immediately as a pasta dressing, or drizzle over roasted vegetables, grain bowls, or wraps. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Notes

  • Toss this sauce with pasta for a creamy and flavorful dressing, or pour it over grain bowls, roasted veggies, or wraps—the possibilities are endless!
  • Store leftovers in an airtight jar or container in the fridge for up to one week to keep the flavors fresh.
  • If you don’t have a food processor, you can whisk all the ingredients together in a bowl. The texture may not be as smooth, but the taste remains delicious.
