    Back in 1994, I worked with a friend from Qatar that turned me on to middle eastern cuisine. I fell in love with the chicken sharwma sandwich because of TOUM. I mistakenly thought it was tzatsiki sauce. I tried to make it but had no clue what I was doing. For Easter, my chef daughter made our middle eastern dinner with lamb and chicken and she made toum. For 29 years, I've been looking for this sauce! When I tasted it, it brought tears to me eyes! FINALLY! Nothing better than a chicken pita sandwich with a generous ladle of toum with hummus and toubouli! So good! Thank you for this post.

    I remember my late father would sit there with an old olive wood mortar and pestle we brought with us from Lebanon (I'm not sure how old it was) and he would almost go into a trance pounding the garlic and salt into the smoothest paste I've ever seen. Usually he'd be listening to Fairuz or Oum Kolthoum while he was doing it. Once he was done, someone else would finish putting it together as he had done the important work. And yes, I DO have that mortar and pestle and it still has the heavenly aroma from all of those years of being used.

    I’ve worked in a Lebanese restaurant for 6 years few years ago and this sauce is the most requested sauce to the point that we started selling them in a jar. I also found that adding the salt from the beginning before emulsifying will likely split the sauce quickly, I always add it at the end.

      Avacado oil sounds like a nice alternative! I think it coagulates at a lower temperature than most other oils which is well suited to toum. You want it nice & fluffy almost like a jelly idealy.

    Hey guys, I will give you a tip for making the perfect garlic sauce. I used to work in a Lebanese shawarma restaurant, so everything I say is authentic:
    Tip one: add one egg white per 1 head of garlic, blend until smooth then add the oil slowly.
    Tip tow: add 6 tbsp of cold ice water after every thing is done per 1 head of garlic. Adjust the water for the consistency you like aka the "sauceyness" the water also helps with whitening the sauce.
    Tip three: 1 head of garlic can best hold 1.5- 2 cups of oil.
    Tip four: you can use a ratio of 1 of citric acid to 2 salt for the seasonings, if you do this don't add lemon juice.
    These tips help me make the best garlic sauce that i tasted in my life. Great video👍

      Update: spare the egg yolk in case the sauce breaks, if it breaks god forbids, then empty the garlic sauce into some sort of container then add the egg yolk into the processor and bland the you add the broken garlic sauce into the egg yolk slowly at first then you can go wild on pouring the rest in once the proper emulsificaition has started. Lol. (Thats because you already have some emulsified garlic sauce in the oil, thats what you call broken garlic sauce. Lol)

    I think I had this once without knowing what it was! I've never forgotten. It was a pita sandwich with chicken meat, tomato and onion grilled in a press; one of the most delicious meals I've ever had. I knew it was heavy with a garlic-mayonnaise type sauce but never knew what exactly. This must have been it, the owner of the restaurant was Lebanese. That press-grill really made a difference between just grilling it. Thanks!

    Soooo good! Toum is my favorite sauce in the whole world and I could eat it for every meal 😂 I was always intimidated on making it because I didn’t want it to break but first try and it was absolutely amazing!! I used 2.5 cups of avocado oil, 3 tbs of lemon juice, and about 100
    Cloves on garlic 😂 I only had the patience to take out the middle of the garlic on half of them. Then I just threw the rest in and prayed for the best 😅 so good!!

    I used less salt and less oil and my sauce was very strong tasting. I decided to put it in the canner (boiling water bath in sealer jars) to enable storage on a shelf instead of the fridge and this tempered the flavour since cooked garlic is less pungent than fresh. Yum, I love this stuff.

    *REMEDIAL CLASS*
    _TL;dr -- You can add your failed toum to a properly emulsified batch, and it will also emulsify. You're welcome._
    Has your toum turned to tears? Were you busy flying paper airplanes instead of listening to Professor -Garlic- Tadevosian? Well there's good news, kiddies: You can still fix it!
    Yes, you have to make a new batch.
    No, you don't have to do it right this second. (The failure sauce will keep in the fridge.)
    Yes, you can still turn your failure sauce into proper toum!
    I really didn't want _more_ toum than my failure batch amounted to, so I opted to make just 1/3 of a batch more. The math is easy when using Henry's original recipe, be it imperial/US or metric. Of course, if you have no failure sauce to deal with, maybe you could just start with a smaller machine and make the 1/3 batch recipe:
    -10 cloves/10000 millicloves garlic
    -2 tsp./10g salt
    -1 tbsp./15ml lemon juice
    -1 cup/250ml oil
    Make this batch exactly as Henry does, _paying special attention to get the garlic and salt mixture down to a fine paste._ If you have more bowl than garlic (as I did), you may have to scrape the bowl and run the processor 20 times (like I did). You'd be better off doing this amount in a Magic Bullet, mini food processor or even a blender (as commenter Tazin Niti said worked great!), but I persevered with the big machine to prove it could be done.
    OK, it was actually to save myself having to wash another thing.
    Once you have your garlic paste, add 1 tsp./5ml of your lemon juice (or 1 tbsp./15ml if you're using Henry's full 30000-milliclove recipe) and run the machine for a few seconds until your garlic paste has incorporated it all. Scrape down your bowl.
    Now, with the machine running*, _slowly_ add around 1 teaspoon of your oil. If you're doing it right, you should see it turn to "mayonnaise" before your eyes. Don't be shy to stop, open the bowl and check with your spatula...you don't want to make another batch of failure sauce!
    *(If you have a machine that you can't add to while running, just add your oil 1 tsp./5ml at a time and then run the machine until you have that "mayonnaise" consistency BEFORE adding more.)
    Once you're certain that you've achieved emulsification with the first bit of oil, add a little bit at a time and blitz it each time until it's "mayo". When you reach half of your oil, add the remaining lemon juice as with the oil, a bit at a time. Then, switch back to slowly adding oil until it's all incorporated. It's should still be "mayo-ey".
    Now, do you remember your failure sauce? This is where it becomes success sauce! Just add it to the properly emulsified toum you just made, the same way you added the oil and the juice, a little at a time. It should be "mayo-ey" the whole time.
    Remember, little old ladies all around the Mediterranean made sauces like this for their families back in the day with just a mortar and pestle. They'd pulverize the garlic into a paste first, and then add the juice and oil _a few drops at a time,_ only adding more once emulsification is achieved.
    Oh, and if you have a shit ton of this stuff and dunno what to do with it all, I've used it twice to make pan gravies for meat with amazing results. It's also eminently usable in hummus, adjusting ingredients accordingly (mostly the oil and salt). I'm sure I'll think of more, too!
    Of course, the very best thing you can do with it is give a container of toum to someone you love.
