  • Shred ½ a green cabbage and ½ a fennel bulb, ideally using a mandoline for thin, even slices.

  • In a bowl, whisk together ¼ cup tahini, juice of 1 lime, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, a pinch of salt and pepper, and 3-5 tablespoons of water. Adjust water for desired consistency.
  • Drizzle the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss well to coat evenly.
