EASY GARLIC AIOLI (GARLIC SPREAD)



Easy Garlic Aioli (Garlic Spread) image

If you love garlic then this spread is a must-try. Use it on sandwiches and veggies. I have coated this on salmon fillets before baking. My advise is if you are using this to coat your salmon fillets, you might want to decrease the garlic amount. This spread does a great job keeping the moistness in the fish and gives it a fantastic flavor. Please don't leave out the fresh tarragon--it's what brings this spread to life! The garlic amount may be decreased. Use only mayonnaise not salad dressing for this.

Tips:

  • Use fresh garlic: Fresh garlic has a more robust flavor than store-bought garlic powder or garlic salt.
  • Roast the garlic: Roasting the garlic mellows its flavor and makes it sweeter.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: The quality of the olive oil you use will significantly impact the flavor of the aioli.
  • Emulsify the aioli slowly: Emulsifying the aioli too quickly can cause it to break.
  • Season the aioli to taste: Add salt, pepper, and lemon juice to taste until you reach the desired flavor.
  • Serve the aioli immediately: Aioli is best served fresh. If you need to store it, keep it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Garlic aioli is a versatile and delicious condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your taste preferences. Whether you are using it as a dipping sauce, a marinade, or a spread, garlic aioli is sure to please everyone at your table.
