Toum (Garlic Sauce) Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 cup garlic cloves (peeled) 🧄
• 1 tsp salt 🧂
• 2½ cups neutral oil (like canola or sunflower) 🛢️
• ¼ cup lemon juice 🍋
• 2–4 tbsp ice water ❄️💧 (if needed)

Instructions:

1. Blend Garlic: Add garlic and salt to a food processor. Blend until finely minced.
2. Add Lemon Juice: Slowly add lemon juice while blending.
3. Emulsify: While the processor is running, very slowly drizzle in the oil, alternating occasionally with a bit of ice water if the mixture gets too thick. This creates a fluffy, creamy texture.
4. Finish: Continue blending until smooth and white, like a thick mayo.

Tips:

• Go slow with the oil for proper emulsification!
• Store in the fridge up to 1 month.
