Ingredients
- 1 C peeled garlic cloves
- 2 teaspoons of salt
- 3 C neutral oil
- 1/2 C lemon juice
Instructions
- Add garlic cloves into a food processor and add the kosher salt to the garlic cloves. Process for a minute
- until the garlic becomes finely minced. Make sure to scrape down the sides of the food processor
- afterwards.
- While the food processor is running, slowly pour one to two tablespoons of oil, then stop and scrape
- down the bowl. Continue adding another tablespoon or two until the garlic starts looking creamy.
- Once the garlic looks emulsified by the few tablespoons of oil, increase the speed of pouring the oil and
- alternate with the 1⁄2 cup of lemon juice until all the oil and lemon juice is incorporated. This will take
- about 15 minutes to complete.
- Transfer the sauce into a glass container and cover with a paper towel in the fridge overnight. Makes
