Directions
This super healthy Mediterranean side dish is loved by everyone (yes even kids). It’s super easy to make and tastes like no other. It’s a perfect side dish for fish and meat. If you don’t like anchovies you should still try this recipe because the anchovies taste is not taking over it’s just a refreshing addition.
Putting aside the amazing taste of Thini with anchovies, there is a great health benefit by combining Tahini and anchovies because while Tahini is rich in omega 6 Anchovies are rich in omega 3 which help to balance between the omega 3/omega 6 ratios.
