Egg Free Garlic Aioli (aka Toum)

Directions

1. 1
   Cut the garlic cloves in half and remove the green gem from the center (it has a bitter flavour).
2. 2
   Place the garlic cloves and salt in a food processor and blend until finely minced.
3. 3
   Add in the lemon juice and blend until smooth.
4. 4
   With the food processor on low speed, very very slowly drizzle the oil in. After 1/2 a cup of oil has been added, pour in 1 tbsp of the water. Continue drizzling another 1/2 cup of oil followed by 1 tbsp of water until everything has been added and the sauce is thick and smooth like mayonnaise. Go very slowly, it should take about 8 to 10 minutes to add everything.

   Store the toum in a container in the fridge for up to 1 month
