  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed garlic

Directions

  1. 1. Put the egg in the blender along with the mustard, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper. Cover the blender but take out the little plastic cup in the center of the lid.
  2. 2. Blend on high while slowly and steadily pouring in the oil; do a small trickle at first, after it emulsifies you can be a bit more heavy handed. It should start to emulsify after a minute or two. The more oil you add (as well as blending time) the fluffier and less runny it becomes.
  3. 3. If it should curdle (yes, it happens) pour out the mixture into a cup, wash the blender and start with another egg. Trickle in the curdled mix.... This should save it. Practice with an inexpensive oil before you use extra virgin olive oil or some other high priced oil.
  4. 4. Transfer the aioli into a very clean glass jar and keep it in the refrigerator for up to seven to ten days.
