Lebanese Garlic Sauce

Two Garlic Bulbs

This is a garlic-powered lemony dressing. Serve with meats, as a seasoning in salad dressings or on pocket bread sandwiches, or tear off pieces of pita bread and dip it, or on crackers, or on veggies, or just eat it by the teaspoon, umm-umm good! If sauce separates while in storage, just stir or blend again.

5 bulbs garlic, cloves separated and peeled, enough to make up 1 cup (Polish garlic works great!)
1 cup lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
3 cups olive oil

In a blender, combine the garlic cloves, lemon juice and salt and pepper. Blend at medium speed until smooth. Continue blending while pouring olive oil into the blender in a thin stream until the thickness you want. The mixture should become thick and white like salad dressing. Store refrigerated in a glass container. A squeeze bottle works great.

“A bag of veggie chips and a squeeze bottle of Garlic Sauce to squirt on the chips — it don’t get any better. Garlic Breath: the new you!”
