Tahini is a Middle-Eastern condiment made from ground sesame. Tahini is a very versatile product that is great as a marinade on meat or as a salad dressing.

Tahini Marinade 

½ cup tahini (make sure it's nice and runny
⅓ cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
¼ cup lemon juice (about the juice of one large lemon)
1 tablespoon za'atar
¼ teaspoon dried mint
⅓ cup fresh chopped parsley
¼ cup fresh chopped mint
1 teaspoon Aleppo pepper
1 teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon pepper
5 cloves garlic, chopped

Add the tahini, red wine vinegar, olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, spices, and chopped garlic into the bowl. Use a whisk to combine the ingredients. (Tip: If your marinade is too thick because of the tahini, add a couple of tablespoons of water until the marinade is nice and runny.)
