- 3-4 tablespoons lemon juice

DRESSING: Combine the tahini paste, garlic, lemon juice, cumin, and salt and pepper in a bowl. Whisk to combine, then add hot water to help thin so it's easily pourable.
VEGGIES: I sautéed the asparagus in 2 teaspoons of oil with some salt and pepper over medium-high heat for 1-2 minutes before adding them to the salad.
ASSEMBLY: Arrange desired ingredients in a bowl and dress the salad with the tahini dressing.
