Begin by peeling the garlic cloves and mincing them finely. You can use a garlic press to ensure they're very finely minced, which will help in distributing the flavor evenly throughout the mayonnaise.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and salt. Whisk until the mixture is well combined and slightly thickened.
Slowly start adding olive oil, just a few drops at a time, while continuously whisking the mixture. This gradual addition is crucial to prevent the mayonnaise from splitting. Use a balloon whisk or a blender running at its slowest setting.
As the mixture begins to thicken and emulsify, continue to add the olive oil in a very thin, steady stream, whisking constantly. If you notice the oil building up, pause your pouring and whisk thoroughly to incorporate before continuing.
Once all the olive oil is incorporated into the mixture, you should have a thick and creamy mayonnaise.
Season with freshly ground black pepper, adjusting salt to taste if needed. Give it one final whisk to combine the seasonings evenly.
Transfer the mayonnaise into a clean jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to meld together.
Enjoy your sugar-free garlic mayonnaise as a dip, spread, or salad dressing!
