Ingredients

Scale

  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 cups neutral vegetable oil (like avocado oil)

Instructions

  1. Peel the garlic cloves if not pre-peeled.
  2. Cut each clove in half lengthwise and remove any green germ to prevent bitterness.
  3. In a tall jar, combine halved garlic, lemon juice, and salt. Blend with an immersion blender until you form a paste with foam (20-30 seconds).
  4. Gradually add the oil while blending to emulsify the mixture, pulsing up and down for about 3-5 minutes until fully combined.
  5. Transfer toum to an airtight jar and store in the fridge for 2-3 months.
