How to make this sauce egg free?

I have seen a lot of toum recipes use eggs to make it fluffy. I have also seen recipes not using the egg at all but those recipes take a little bit of work to get the right texture for the sauce. So there are three ways you can go egg free with this sauce:

  • You can use an egg replacer
  • Do not use any egg but you will have to be patient and drizzle the oil very slowly to get the right texture and to be honest I never get it right with this method.
  • The third method is to use a boiled potato!

Yes, in this recipe, I use a boiled potato! It gives the same results.

Making the Sauce Less Bitter

If you find the garlic sauces to be bitter, a trick to make it milder is to cut the garlic in half and remove the green vein running in the center. Adding the potato will also help.

Equipment Needed to Make EggFree Toum Style Garlic Sauce

You can use either any of the following:

  • blender
  • food processor

I used a blender as I don’t have an immersion blender.
