Persian Lime Aioli

Swap the empty calories in mayonnaise with this delicious, healthy aioli made with extra virgin olive oil. You can use aioli anywhere you’d use mayonnaise – on burgers, sandwiches, dips, and dressings. And don’t stop with Persian Lime! This recipe can be used with any of our fused & infused olive oils, like our Tuscan Herb, Lemon, & Garlic flavors.

Ingredients:

• 2 fresh garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tsp. sea salt
• 1 large egg yolk
• 1 tablespoon fresh squeezed lime juice
• 1/2 cup neutral oil such as safflower, grape seed oil, or a mild unflavored EVOO
• 1/2 cup Persian Lime extra virgin olive oil

Directions:

Place the garlic and salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade or in a blender. Pulse for a few seconds.

Add the egg yolk and lime juice.

With the motor running, slowly add the safflower oil in a thin stream. Without turning the motor off, add the Persian Lime extra virgin olive slowly in a thin stream.

Taste and finish with more salt if necessary.

Makes approximately 1 cup.
