[Question] for the life of me i cant get my toum to emulsify
[Question] for the life of me i cant get my toum to emulsify
i followed the hand blender part of this(https://youtu.be/ZyOXoafZYT0) recipe. this only difference is i chopped my garlic a lot finer, i used 50/50 olive and vegetable oil and blended it longer.
i slowly blended it to make sure i wasnt adding too much oil but maybe i overblended?
ive tried his fix(adding aquafaba) but it didn't work, ive tried ice cubes and eggs but it doesnt work.
ive tried making a smaller batch with mortar and pestle and but it seems its just the fibers thickening it not an emulsification.
tl;dr: ive tried everything i can find but my toum doesnt thicken what do i do?
You're viewing a single thread.
Are all your ingredients at the same temperature? I find this greatly improves the chances of an emulsion taking hold. Easiest is to go for room temperature by placing your ingredients together on the kitchen counter and leaving them there for an hour or so
I'll do that next time, the lemon juice was cold iirc
Cool let me know if it works
