White sauce for shawarma is mostly made of garlic…you can add some mustard seeds to it too… :yummy:

Re: White sauce..

Re: White sauce..

I think its the garlic sauce. Tahini is used in the hummus. And no i dont know how to make it, Sara. :kiss:

Re: White sauce..

tahini sauce is not used in gyros....perhaps some ppl use it as a substitute for the actual gyro sauce.

SARA....plz try this recipe. I guarantee you'll absolultey love it...AND please let me know how it turned out. (once again another one of my moms recipes) :)

Combine 1 cup sour cream
3/4 finely chopped, peeled cucumber
2tbls mayo
1 tbls vinegar
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 dill weed
cover and refrigerate at least 1 hr to blend flavors

makes about 1 1/2 cups

these measurements are approximated by ME...my mom doesnt really measure things out so i hope it isnt lacking anything

enjoy ur gyro :D
