Sea, I love the idea of tahini with beets. I’ve tried a mustard and lemon dressing which works well, I bet the savory tahini is good with the sweet beets.

This is a tasty recipe. I left cumin off as I’m not a big fan of that flavor nor did I do the dill/parsley top dressing. The lemon balances the sweet of the beet and the tahini is a great dressing base. Good idea!
