Homemade Garlic Sauce for Everything

Ingredients

• 4 garlic cloves (Peeled; adjust the amount to taste.)
• 1 egg (At room temperature.)
• 2 tbsp lemon juice (Fresh.)
• 1 cup neutral vegetable oil (Add gradually; canola or sunflower oil may also be used.)
• salt (To taste. Since no quantity is specified, the weight is not estimated.)
• black pepper (Optional and to taste. Since no quantity is specified, the weight is not estimated.)

Steps

1. 1

   Place the garlic cloves, egg, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a blender jar or tall container. Use room-temperature ingredients to facilitate emulsification.

2. 2

   Blend at medium speed until the garlic is completely puréed and the mixture looks uniform.

3. 3

   With the blender running, pour in the oil in a very thin, steady stream. Do not add it all at once: the mixture should gradually thicken, like mayonnaise.

4. 4

   Continue incorporating the oil until the sauce is creamy, thick, and light in color. Taste and adjust the salt, lemon, or garlic as needed.

5. 5

   Transfer the sauce to a clean container, cover it, and refrigerate it before serving. Use it as an accompaniment for meats, potatoes, vegetables, arepas, or sandwiches.

Notes

The recipe was reconstructed from the title, since the provided description did not include quantities or visible instructions. Keep the sauce refrigerated and ideally consume it within 2 to 3 days because it contains raw egg. If the sauce breaks, place a teaspoon of water in a clean container and gradually add the broken sauce while whisking.
