1 cup water

2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced

1 cup plain yogurt

1. Beat together the tahini, lemon juice and water until smooth and creamy. Place the mixture in a food processor; add the garlic, yogurt, and cayenne and pulse until creamy and frothy.

2. Meanwhile, boil the noodles in ample salted water until tender. Drain and reserve 1/4-1/2 cup of the liquid. Toss the noodles with olive oil.
