  • Method: Whisking
  • Cuisine: Mediterranean

Ingredients

  • 1 egg yolk (room temperature)
  • 1–2 garlic cloves, finely minced or grated
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard (optional)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup neutral oil (canola or grapeseed)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together egg yolk, minced garlic, lemon juice, Dijon mustard (if using), and salt until smooth.
  2. Start adding the neutral oil a few drops at a time while whisking constantly to begin the emulsion.
  3. As the mixture thickens, slowly drizzle in the remaining oil in a steady stream, alternating with olive oil, while whisking vigorously.
  4. Continue whisking until the aioli becomes thick and creamy.
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or lemon juice if needed.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for best emulsification.
  • Add oil very slowly at the beginning to prevent breaking.
  • Use roasted garlic for a milder, sweeter flavor.
  • Store in the refrigerator and use within 3 days due to raw egg.
  • Blender or immersion blender can speed up the process.
