Steps
Preparación
Place the cold milk, peeled and chopped garlic, salt, and lemon juice in the blender jar. Blend at medium speed for a few seconds, until the garlic is well incorporated and the mixture looks uniform.
Emulsionar
With the blender still running at medium speed, begin adding the vegetable oil very slowly in a thin, steady stream. Do not pour it in all at once: gradual incorporation allows the mixture to emulsify properly.
Continue blending while incorporating all the oil. The mixture will begin to thicken and should develop a creamy, firm texture similar to mayonnaise.
When the cream is thick, turn off the blender and remove the jar from the base. Add the chopped fresh parsley and, if desired, the very finely chopped red bell pepper.
Gently mix the ingredients with a spoon, just until the parsley and bell pepper are evenly distributed without losing the creamy texture.
Transfer the cream to a clean glass jar with a lid. Refrigerate it and consume it within 5 to 7 days.
Notes
Always keep the cream refrigerated and use a clean glass jar. The red bell pepper is optional. If the mixture takes a while to thicken, continue adding the oil slowly while the blender is running.
