Make a garlic paste. Using a mortar and pestle, crush the garlic cloves with the salt into a paste (or mince or finely grate the garlic and season with salt).
Combine. Add the crushed garlic, tahini paste, and lime juice to the bowl of a food processor and blend (it will be thick as it emulsifies). Add the water, a little bit at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
Finish and serve. Transfer to a serving bowl and stir in the parsley (if using). Enjoy!
