Description

We're happy to welcome back Tanner Thorp from Montereau showing us how to do a simple Aioli and then jazz it up.


Ingredients

  • 1 heaping tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 cups mayonnaise

  3. Optional Additions: -Chipotle peppers in adobo & honey (to taste) -Thai sweet chili sauce (to taste) -Chopped cilantro (substitute lime juice in the recipe for cilantro lime aioli) -Grated parmesan and truffle oil -Dijon or whole grain mustard and honey -Pesto
