Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Aquafaba (liquid from canned chickpeas)
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 cup Olive oil
Instructions
In a blender or food processor, combine the aquafaba, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, salt, and ground black pepper.
Blend the mixture on medium speed for about 30 seconds until the ingredients are well mixed and slightly frothy.
With the blender or food processor on low speed, begin to slowly add the olive oil in a thin, steady stream. This step is crucial for emulsification and achieving a creamy consistency.
Continue to blend until all the olive oil is incorporated and the aioli is thick and smooth. It should have a consistency similar to mayonnaise.
Taste the aioli and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice according to your preference.
Transfer the aioli to a clean jar or container and store it in the refrigerator. It will thicken slightly as it chills and should be used within a week.
