Allioli image

Allioli is the Spanish version of the French garlic sauce aioli - or is the other way around? A spoonful stirred into fideus noodles, paella or fish soup adds richness and a truly garlicky flourish. The purist version is made only with garlic and oil, but it's rather tricky to achieve a proper emulsion that way, so most people use egg yolks and make it like a mayonnaise.

Time 10m

Yield Slightly more than 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 large garlic cloves, smashed to a paste with a little salt
2 egg yolks
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Put garlic paste and egg yolks in a mixing bowl and whisk together. Whisk in olive oil slowly, a tablespoon at a time, until mixture begins to thicken. (Caution: Adding oil too quickly may cause the sauce to curdle.)
  • When 1/2 cup oil has been added and sauce is quite thick, whisk in 2 to 3 tablespoons water, then continue to add oil gradually, thinning once more if necessary. The consistency should be like whipped cream, but not too stiff. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate for up to several hours. Sauce tastes best the day it is made.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my allioli turned out really oily. I guess I need to practice more.

This allioli is a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding some herbs or spices to give it more flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my allioli turned out too runny. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This allioli was a bit too garlicky for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less garlic if you're not a fan of strong flavors.

I'm not a huge fan of garlic, but this allioli was surprisingly delicious. It was light and fluffy, and the garlic flavor was very subtle. I used it as a dipping sauce for vegetables and it was perfect.

This allioli recipe is a lifesaver! I've tried making it with other recipes before, but they always turned out too oily or too garlicky. This one, however, is perfect. It's creamy, flavorful, and has just the right amount of garlic.
