Toum
Garlic kicking Cloud, that might be better than Mayo…?
PREP: 30min || COMBINE: 15min
Toum
1/2 Cup of Garlic cloves (peeled)
2 Cups Vegetable Oil (if not more)
1/4 Cup Lemon Juice (about 1 1/2 Lemons)
1 Tsp Kosher Salt
Make the Toum
Add the Garlic cloves and Salt to a food processor, and a few Tbsps of the vegetable oil
Blend until a paste forms, add more vegetable oil if needed
Then with the motor of the processor running, add about a Tbsp of the lemon juice
With the motor still running add 2 Tbsps of the vegetable oil
Continue to alternate steps 3 & 4 until all of the oil and juice has been used
A thick mayo like gel should have formed, and it can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 months
Use on anything you might use mayo, especially good beside a rotisserie chicken!!
Make the Toum
If the Toum is still too hot with garlic flavor continue to add vegetable oil until it reaches a flavor to your liking
The emulsion is easy to break, so be careful slowly adding oil and alternating with Lemon Juice
