I Don’t Have an Orange, What Now?
If you don’t have an orange to make fresh orange juice, you can use store-bought orange juice. You can also use a lemon as a substitute. However, using a more acidic citrus will make your dressing tangier and more zesty.
Properly Storing the Tahini Critus Dressing
You can prepare the citrus tahini dressing ahead of time since it’s easy to store. You’ll need a glass jar or an airtight container. Just make sure that you don’t store it in anything made from plastic since the dressing’s acidity can react with this material. Then, you may store it in your fridge to last longer.
You can freeze your dressing using ice cube trays and store it in your freezer, which may last up to a month. When using the frozen dressing, thaw it in the refrigerator beforehand. It may not be a good idea to heat it in the microwave because the ingredients might separate.
