Carrageenan Free Avocado Oil Toum

Toum is the garlicky, cloud-like condiment that makes everything from grilled meats to roasted vegetables taste like a restaurant meal — and this version is every bit as lush and billowy as the classic. Many store-bought garlic sauces and emulsified condiments rely on stabilizers and thickeners that can be hard to track down on a label, so making it from scratch puts you completely in control of what goes into the jar. The secret here is avocado oil, which emulsifies beautifully into a thick, white, whipped spread that holds its structure without any additives whatsoever. Patience with the pour is everything — a slow, steady drizzle of oil alternated with lemon juice and ice water is what transforms raw garlic and salt into something almost impossibly fluffy. The result is a deeply savory, bright, and pungent sauce that firms up even more once chilled, making it perfect for spreading, dipping, or dolloping generously onto whatever needs a flavor upgrade. It keeps well in the fridge, so one batch goes a long way.
