Toum, also known as tum, toom, tummie or toumya, is a very popular Lebanese garlic sauce in the Middle East. It’s my favorite thing to eat when I eat Lebanese (or not)!
You can also make this recipe of Lebanese garlic dip with a mortar.

Steps

1
Done

Preparing your garlic cloves

Start by peeling your garlic cloves plus removing their sprouts. Add them to a blender with a pinch of salt and blend very finely.

2
Done

Add the lemon juice

Add a tablespoon of lemon juice and continue blending until a slightly mushy texture is obtained. Add another tablespoon of lemon juice and continue blending until the Toum is smooth.

3
Done

Add oil

While continuing to blend slowly, add 250ml of oil little by little and then add another tablespoon of lemon juice. Repeat once more: 250ml of oil and a tablespoon of lemon juice.

4
Done

Mix and add ice water

Repeat the operation one last time: 250 ml of remaining oil, one tablespoon of lemon juice and the equivalent of one tablespoon of ice water, until all the water has been incorporated into your Lebanese Toum.

5
Done

Your homemade Lebanese garlic dip is ready!

Your Lebanese Toum is ready! Put your garlic sauce in an airtight glass jar for storage. It will keep for about 1 month in a cool place.
Enjoy your meal!
