This garlic aioli is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser—it's creamy, garlicky, tangy, and has just the right depth of flavor. Perfect for fries, sandwiches, burgers, or honestly anything edible.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • Juice from ¼ lemon (for that perfect tang)
  • ½ tsp Dijon mustard (adds depth)
  • ½ tsp Osmo garlic salt (to taste)
  • ¼ tsp freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • ¼ cup shredded parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Prep Garlic: Mince the garlic cloves finely. The finer, the better!

  2. Mix Together: Combine mayo, minced garlic, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic salt, black pepper, olive oil, and parmesan in a bowl. Mix until smooth and evenly blended.

  3. Chill & Meld: Pop the aioli into the fridge for about 10-15 minutes. This step is important, but not absolutely necessary–letting those flavors mingle and intensify is what elevates this from great to incredible.

  4. Final Check: Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Remember: this aioli is yours so tweak it until it's perfect!

Tips

  • Taste, taste, taste! These ingredients blend amazingly, but don’t be shy to make adjustments to fit your palate.
  • Try these awesome variations I’m planning to experiment with:
    • Spicy Aioli: Kick it up with a splash of Sriracha or a pinch of cayenne.
    • Herb Aioli: Toss in fresh parsley and basil for a garden-fresh twist.
    • Truffle Aioli: Elevate your aioli game with a drop or two of truffle oil. Fancy, right?

Enjoy!
