Toum is a traditional Lebanese garlic sauce, often served as a condiment with grilled meats, shawarma, or as a dip. Its creamy texture and intense garlic flavor make it a staple in Middle Eastern cuisine. The sauce is known for its simplicity and versatility, enhancing a variety of dishes. While it is most commonly associated with Lebanese cuisine, variations can be found in other Mediterranean cultures as well.
