| Five-Flavor Yogurt Dip March, 2005 Makes about 2 cups / Modeled after a fantastic sauce I had with lamb cubes at a Turkish restaurant in San Francisco, this all-purpose yogurt sauce hits many notes: sweet, sour, hot, salty, herbaceous, and that mysterious savory flavor the Japanese call umami. Serve with red bell pepper, jicama, and carrot slices; as a topping for baked potatoes; with grilled lamb, chicken, or tofu; tossed in tuna salad; or as a different and nutritious sandwich spread. 1 cup low-fat, nonfat, or whole-milk plain yogurt 1/2 cup roasted tahini 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste (optional) 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1.Mix all ingredients in a bowl.
