Instructions

Peel the garlic cloves, remove the central germ if they're strong, then crush them in a mortar with a pinch of salt.
Soak the bread crumb in the vinegar and water, then squeeze it to remove the excess liquid.
Add the bread crumb to the garlic and pound everything together until you have a smooth paste.
Stir in the finely chopped parsley, then pour in the olive oil in a thin stream, mixing to emulsify the sauce.
Adjust the seasoning with salt and white pepper, then let it rest 15 minutes in the cool before serving.
