Golden Goddess Dressing
Ingredients:
1/4 cup hemp seeds
1 Medjool dates, pitted
1/2 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1/2 shallot, finely chopped
1/2 cup yellow bell peppers, diced
1 teaspoon black salt (adjust to taste)
6 fennel seeds
1 small piece of African bird pepper (adjust to spice preference)
2 tablespoons butternut squash seed oil
Juice of 2 key limes
Instructions:
Pit the Medjool date and chop them into smaller pieces.
Finely chop the shallots and dice the yellow bell peppers.
Toast Fennel Seeds (optional. Toasting brings out more flavor):
In a small dry pan, lightly toast the fennel seeds over medium heat until fragrant. Be careful not to burn them. Once toasted, set aside to cool.
Blend Ingredients:
In a blender or food processor, combine hemp seeds, pitted dates, grated ginger, chopped shallots, diced yellow bell peppers, black salt, toasted fennel seeds, African bird pepper, butternut squash seed oil, and key lime juice.
Blend until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a bit of water or more lime juice to reach your desired consistency.
Adjust Seasoning:
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning as needed. Add more black salt, lime juice, or African bird pepper if desired.
Store:
Transfer the sauce to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate. This sauce can be stored for a few days.
