Aioli

Aioli is a garlic infused mayonnaise that is popular in Mediterranean cooking. Use it either with or instead of regular mayonnaise to for additional flavor. 

---

1 whole egg
1 egg white
1-1/4 cups olive oil (or canola oil)

juice of 1/2 lemon
4 cloves garlic
pinch sea salt (optional)

1. In a blender, whirl the egg and egg white together. (If you are using salt this is when you would add it.)
   
2. With the blender running, add about a cup of the oil in a slow, steady, thin stream. The mixture will start to thicken.
   
3. Add the lemon juice. Then continue to add more oil until the mixture is thick and emulsified. 
   
4. Peel and coarsely chop the garlic cloves. Using a mortar and pestle (or a small bowl and the back of a spoon) crush the garlic into a paste.
   
5. Spoon the mayonnaise into a bowl and fold in the garlic paste.
