Tasty Tahini Dressings

gf – df – sf

1/4 cup of tahini paste

1/4 cup of water

1 tablespoon of olive oil

1 tablespoon of Bestow Beauty Oil Juice of one lemon

1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon of honey

1 clove of garlic, crushed

Blend all the above ingredients with a stick blender. Store in a jar in the fridge for several days. Use on your favourite salads and nourishing bowls (see page 59).

The sesame seeds that are used to make tahini are a good source of calcium, a mineral most well known for strengthening our bones. But did you know that calcium is a vital building block for making collagen, a fibre that is important for the firmness and elasticity of your skin?

Sesame seeds are also high in copper, another mineral important for collagen and elastin synthesis as well as encouraging wound healing and the production of the skin’s protective pigment, melanin.

Skin-friendly Mayonnaise

gf – df – sf

2 egg yolks

½ teaspoon of mustard powder

1 tablespoon of lemon juice

1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar

¼ cup of olive oil

¼ cup of Bestow Beauty Oil

Himalayan or sea salt and pepper to season


In a blender add egg yolk, mustard, lemon juice, vinegar and salt/pepper. Blend to combine. With blender running, very slowly add the oils into the mixture. Continue blending until the mixture is thick and forms an emulsion. Season to taste. Will keep up to 2 weeks if stored in a sealed jar in the fridge.
