Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces garlic cloves
- 0.5 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 large egg white
Instructions
Peel the garlic cloves and finely mince them, or use a garlic press to create a paste-like consistency.
In a blender or food processor, add the minced garlic, egg white, and salt. Blend on low speed until the mixture is frothy and well combined.
While blending on low speed, very slowly drizzle in the olive oil, starting with just a few drops at a time. Gradually increase the flow to a thin steady stream, ensuring the oil emulsifies with the garlic mixture.
Once all the oil is incorporated, add the lemon juice and water. Blend for an additional 15-20 seconds to ensure the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Taste the sauce and adjust for salt or lemon juice if desired.
Transfer the garlic sauce to a serving bowl or an airtight container. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 5 days for later use.
