PREP: 5 Minutes = TOTAL: 5 Minutes

YEILDS approximately 1 cup

Thick, rich and creamy this dipping sauce was made to compliment winter nori roll but it goes well with crudités, use as a condiment or spread. It can double as a pesto too!

  • ¼ cup [55 grams] raw sesame seeds
    1 orange, peel and remove any seeds
    1 clove garlic, minced
    1 tablespoon [18 grams] fresh ginger, minced
    1 tablespoon [18 grams] coarse pepper berries
    1 teaspoon [4.5 grams] sea salt
    1 teaspoon [4.5 grams] fresh rosemary leaves, optional
    ¼ cup [60 ml] cold pressed extra virgin olive oil

    • Peel orange, separate segments, remove any seeds and put in blender or food processor. Add all remaining ingredients, except olive oil, and blend until incorporated. While blender is still running, slowly add olive oil, blending until thick and emulsified.

    Serve immediately or chilled for later use. Stir before serving. This dip should keep in the refrigerator up to one week.
