    When you make Toum, you inevitably have a lot left over. Some uses I've been taught by a Lebanese friend...1. Thin it out with water, add an herb of choice and you have instant meat marinade. 2. use 2 tbsp of toum and 1 tbsp of butter, toss your pasta in it before putting the sauce on, this one is my favourite, it's so amazing!! 3. use a tbsp as a flavour addition to most sauces, it's super good in alfredo sauce. 4. spread a thin layer on baguette when making bruschetta. 4. This one really is the best of them....smother a whole chicken with it, inside and out, prior to roasting. Promise, you're going to be amazed.

      It also freezes pretty well. It will be a little runny when thawed out but it readily whips up again and the flavor stays the same. I freeze large spoonfuls on waxed paper and, when frozen, put the 'discs' into a freezer bag so I can take out just the amount I need.

    What a coincidence, I just made my mandatory monthly batch of this heavenly stuff this morning! I absolutely LOVE toum, literally can eat it on anything! Even though most recipes do ask for 3 cups of oil, I make mine with less than half of that amount and it turns out perfect just the same.
    The recipe I've adapted after a couple of years making it is this:
    165g peeled garlic cloves (about 2 heads)
    2 tsp fine table salt
    About 1 1/3 cup of COLD sunflower seed oil (+-320ml)
    Juice of 1 lime, likely not all of it.
    Pinch of freshly ground black pepper
    Same MO using the food processor, but the trick is using ICE COLD OIL, I leave it up to one hour in the freezer before hand and it thickens up the sauce almost instantly, using just a fraction of the recommended quantity. Maybe using lime juice, much tarter than lemon, also helps. But that's how I make mine, it yields nearly 600ml (2 small 10oz jars) that don't last 2 weeks over here 🤤

      @@adiposeNarnian Hi! Yes, I also use the food processor. Blend garlic, salt, pepper and about 1 tbsp of lime juice for like 30 seconds, then open to scrape the sides, add another tablespoon of lime juice and turn it back on, adding the cold oil VERY slowly. When I’ve used about 2/3 of the oil I add the last tbsp of juice, still blending. Open again, scrape sides, check consistency and finish blending and adding the remaining oil, always very slowly. I used to make it in the regular blender, but I’m the food processor it turns out much better! Good luck 🧄😋

    To make a milder sauce or dip, add a tablespoon or two of this Toum to a bowl of unflavoured yoghurt. You can add herbs too, and more salt to taste.
    Adding Tahini and lemon juice also takes it to a whole new level 😀

    It didn't even dawn on me that there are parts of the world that haven't heard of this. I'm from Michigan, metro Detroit area and Toum or what we just call "a side of garlic or garlic sauce" is everywhere. I wouldn't dare eat a shawarma without it! Fresh pita is my FAV!!! I take the pillowy pockets, open them up put a GOOD dollop of Garlic, lots of pickled veggies, some feta and whatever meat I'm eating. Mmmmmm I'm hungry now!!!

    A cornstarch jelly. Take boiling water and add cornstarch. Mix. Set in fridge and let set. You get a jelly like substance.
    Add garlic to food processor and add a bit of lemon and mix. Add salt (could use citric salt) then add some cornstarch jelly and then slowly add the oil until fluffy. It helps use less oil and makes it fluffier

    Here in Lebanon restaurants (and some households) will sometimes add a cooked cornstarch slurry to bulk it up without affecting the flavor too much but also have more controle over its consistency and maintain a steady emulsion especially when the garlic tends to be less fresh and on the older side (and sometimes starts to sprout) it won't be able to emulsify as much liquid as fresh garlic does. And this way it is much faster cause you grind the garlic into a really smooth paste and then add everything on top of each other and blend it up.

    First time I had this was when I was still a kid and at my mother’s friend’s Arabic restaurant. She is Arab by blood but born and raised in Malaysia. She went back to her home country when she was an adult and learned the language there. She ultimately married her husband who is also an Arab. They opened up a popular restaurant here called Al-Rawsha. The food there is delicious and this sauce has never ever left my memory. It is so creamy and smooth and savoury from the lovely garlic and olive oil and salt. If you’ve never had this I highly recommend it. It’s so delicious with barbecued meats like chicken or lamb. They typically serve this with a dish called Shish Tawook.
