Homemade Garlic Aioli
Description
The recipe blends mayonnaise with fresh garlic and lemon juice, then enriches the mixture with olive oil and seasoning. The garlic adds a pronounced but smooth flavor that is mellowed by the creamy base. The lemon juice brightens the sauce, while olive oil adds a silky texture. A short refrigeration time helps the flavors meld.
This garlic aioli is versatile as a dip, spread, or sauce, enhancing vegetables, sandwiches, grilled meats, or seafood. Its straightforward ingredients yield a reliable and fresh-tasting condiment.
Stored in the refrigerator in a tightly sealed container, the aioli keeps well for up to three days, maintaining its flavor and texture.
