Ingredients

1 head fresh garlic, minced
1/2 tbsp sea salt (fine grain)
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 cups chilled oil (avocado, sunflower, safflower, etc).
1 egg white (optional)

Instructions

Place the minced garlic, salt a 1 tablespoon of lemon juice in either your food processor or a wide mouth mason jar if you're using a stick blender.
Slowly add about half of a cup of the oil in a slow but steady stream while you blend. Then add another tablespoon of lemon juice. Repeat with the oil and lemon juice until it is all incorporated into the garlic sauce.
If your immersion fails for any reason, combine one egg white with 1/4 cup of the garlic sauce liquid. Beat with the immersion blender or use a food procesor and slowly add the rest of the garlic sauce.

Notes

Your homemade garlic sauce will be better after it sits for a few hours, and it starts to mellow after a few days. It will store in the fridge up to four weeks.
