Awaze Toum

Garlic toum with Ethiopian senafich and Mareko chiles. Smoky, bold and our spiciest sauce. Senafich, Ethiopian mustard, adds a sharp, nose-tingling kick on top of the chiles' smoky heat, with warmth from nutmeg, cloves and cinnamon. A little goes a long way on steak, eggs or roast chicken.

What's in the jar

Olive oil. No seed oils. No stabilizers.

Olive oil is hard to whip into toum, so almost every brand on the shelf uses canola oil instead, and many add citric acid or xanthan gum to hold it together. We don't. Our toum is made with olive oil, and the garlic does the holding.

Most store-bought toum

  • Canola or another seed oil
  • Often citric acid or xanthan gum to keep it stable

Obour toum

  • Olive oil only. Never seed oils
  • No stabilizers, gums or preservatives
  • Organic garlic and organic lemon juice
  • Whipped in our San Francisco kitchen

Awaze toum, every ingredient: olive oil, water, organic garlic, organic lemon juice, Mareko chiles, salt, senafich, nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon.
