Fluffy Lebanese Garlic Sauce
  1. Peel your garlic and slice your cloves in half, remove the garlic germ from the center of each clove, you should have 150g after degerming your garlic

  2. Juice about 2 lemons and strain the juice to remove all pulp and seeds

  3. Place your garlic and salt in your food processor and process until finely minced. This should take about 2 minutes, remember to scrape the sides of the food processor bowl every 15 seconds.

  4. When finely minced add a teaspoon of lemon juice and process again for a minute, scraping the bowl every 15 seconds

  5. Add one more teaspoon of lemon and process until a fluffy and fine paste forms

  6. When the garlic has fluffed up, start your food processor, and slowly drizzle in ½ a cup of the oil. You should drizzle it in a flow as thin as a thread, and do not stop the machine until the recipe is completed. As you drizzle the oil the garlic will emulsify into a sauce, you should take about 2 minutes with the first half cup. If your machine has a emulsification resevoir, use it to slowly trickle the oil in. Do not proceed with the recipe until the first half cup has emulsified and thickened

  7. Once the first half cup has emulsified you should slowly drizzle in a tablespoon of lemon juice

  8. Alternate drizzling in ½ a cup of oil and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice until both have finished

  9. Once completed, place the sauce in a container and cover with a paper towel. Let it rest overnight before serving
