Tree Nut Free Avocado Oil Toum

Toum is the Lebanese garlic sauce that makes everything taste better — intensely savory, creamy, and bright with lemon — and this version uses avocado oil to achieve that signature cloud-like texture. The slow drizzle technique is the real secret here: adding the oil in a thin, steady stream while alternating with lemon juice and ice water coaxes the mixture into a thick, fluffy emulsion that looks almost like stiff whipped cream. It's a surprisingly satisfying process to watch come together in the food processor. Because the ingredient list is so clean — garlic, salt, lemon juice, ice water, and avocado oil — there's no need to scan labels or worry about hidden additives that can sneak into store-bought condiments. The result is a bold, versatile sauce that firms up beautifully in the fridge and keeps well in a sealed jar. Slather it on roasted vegetables, use it as a dip, or spread it generously on anything that needs a serious flavor upgrade.
