Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Gather and measure out all ingredients to ensure a smooth preparation process.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, lemon juice, and dijon mustard until well combined.
Add the minced garlic to the bowl and continue to whisk until the mixture is smooth.
Slowly start to add the olive oil by pouring it in a very thin stream while continuously whisking vigorously. This helps in emulsifying the mixture, forming a creamy aioli.
Once all the olive oil is incorporated and the aioli has thickened, add sea salt and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. If you prefer a more garlicky flavor, add additional minced garlic to taste.
Transfer the aioli to a serving dish and use immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
