Toum (garlic sauce)
1 cup garlic, 130g
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 cup, 60g fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup, 60g ice water
3 cups neutral oil I used avocado (do not use olive oil)
Remove the germ from the garlic
Add the salt and garlic to a food processor
And start to break it down. Add 1/2 of the lemon juice to help it form into a thick paste, scrape the bowl down as you go. Slowly drop by drop add 1/2 cup of oil at a time, then 1/4 of the lemon juice and 1/4 of the ice water repeat this process until you have a fluffy thick paste. The whole process takes about 15 minutes. DON’T RUSH IT
