Put the tahini, cumin, paprika, and salt in a wide bowl.
Crush the garlic and add it to the tahini mixture.
Add the lemon juice in three additions, whisking smooth each time.
Drizzle in the olive oil and work it into the meze.
If the texture is too thick, loosen it with 2 tablespoons cold water.
Sprinkle with parsley and chill for 10 minutes.
💡 Tip: Adding lemon juice gradually lets the tahini loosen into a creamy texture without turning harsh.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve in small bowls with toasted bread, raw vegetables, and grilled chicken.
