Lebanese garlic sauce, also known as “Toum”, is a creamy and pungent condiment serves as a delightful dip for your rotisserie chicken or with some plain pita bread. This sauce is a staple in Lebanese cuisine. It boasts a smooth texture and a strong garlic flavor that can be quite addictive. The secret behind its luscious consistency lies in the emulsion process; gradually adding the oil while vigorously blending the mixture creates an airy and velvety sauce.
🧄1 c garic
🧄2 tbsp salt
🧄4 c vegetable oil! No you can not use olive oil, other oils may work, let me know if they do, i herd avocado oil works, canola works.
🧄1 tsp citric acid
🧄 drops of water if it gets to thick
🧄half jalapeño
To begin, start by thoroughly blending the garlic until it is completely smooth. This initial step is crucial as it helps to break down the garlic and unleash its flavors.
Next, add the salt to the blended garlic and continue blending until it forms a velvety paste. This process ensures that the salt is evenly distributed and enhances the overall taste of the sauce.
Now, while the food processor is still running, gradually drizzle in the vegetable oil. The steady stream of oil will emulsify with the garlic paste, resulting in a luscious and creamy consistency.
Once half of the oil has been added, sprinkle in the citric acid. These ingredients will infuse your toum sauce with a tangy and zesty flavor that elevates its taste profile. Continue adding the second half of oil. Adding the oil and utilizing most of it is crucial As this will press the harsh garlic favor.
If you find that your sauce is becoming too thick, you can slowly add water droplets of water to thin out its consistency. However, exercise caution and add water gradually, blending again until you achieve your desired consistency.
For those seeking an extra kick of heat, consider including half a jalapeno pepper (with the seeds removed) in the blender. This addition will impart a subtle spicy flavor that beautifully complements the garlicky essence of the toum sauce.

and just like that we got the best garlic sauce you’ve ever had out of my kitchen one cup fresh garlic 2 tablebspoon of salt stop the machine make sure the garlic is hitting the blade rotation is a good sign add one piece of ice you will need this i placed my vegetable oil in the freezer for about 2 hours now we’re ready to roll oh my gosh Summer it’s working you must be patient i like to add a jalapeno don’t ever stop your machine i know you don’t need this much garlic sauce make enough for all your neighbors yes we’re really going to need four cups of vegetable oil but first we’ll add the citric acid if yours is still watery this will make it thick hopefully i like it zesty i know you don’t want to add that much oil but to lighten up the flavor of the heavy duty garlic you must keep adding oil that is how you dilute the flavor and why not once the garlic forms you can add the oil a little faster we got garlic store in a sealed tight container for approximately one

Why not just add less garlic instead of “diluting” the garlic with more oil…??
