Aioli
It’s really simple to make aioli.
Pound 6 cloves of garlic with a pinch of salt in a mortar until it becomes a paste.
Put the paste in a mixing bowl and whisk together with a whole egg and the juice of half a lemon.
Keep whisking and slowly drizzle in 1 to 1/2 cups of a mild-tasting extra virgin olive oil until the mixture emulsifies and thickens.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve it as a dip.
