Frequently Asked Questions About Garlic aioli
What is garlic aioli?
Garlic aioli is a thick, garlic-flavoured emulsion used as a dip or condiment. Traditional aioli is made by emulsifying garlic with olive oil, while many modern recipes and store-bought versions use mayonnaise as their base.
How do you make garlic aioli at home?
To make garlic aioli from scratch, whisk crushed garlic with egg yolk and lemon juice, then slowly drizzle in oil while whisking until thick. For a quick version, stir crushed garlic and lemon juice into mayonnaise.
What do you eat garlic aioli with?
Garlic aioli pairs well with fries, roasted vegetables, grilled fish and seafood. It also works as a spread in sandwiches and burgers; serve it alongside food as a dip so its rich garlic flavour does not overwhelm the dish.
Why does homemade garlic aioli split?
Homemade garlic aioli usually splits when oil is added too quickly or the emulsion is not whisked steadily. Start a fresh yolk or a little water in a clean bowl, then whisk in the split mixture gradually to bring it back together.
How should you store garlic aioli after opening?
Keep garlic aioli covered in the refrigerator after opening, using a clean utensil each time. Homemade versions containing raw egg should not be left at room temperature; follow the storage directions on the packaging for commercial products.
Can you freeze garlic aioli?
Freezing garlic aioli is not recommended because thawing can break its emulsion, leaving it oily or lumpy. Make or buy an amount you can use while fresh, and keep leftovers refrigerated rather than freezing them.
Why is garlic aioli bitter?
Garlic aioli can taste bitter if the garlic is old, sprouting, or heavily crushed, or if the oil itself has a bitter flavour. Remove the green sprout from garlic and use fresh, mild-tasting oil to avoid this.
Can you cook with garlic aioli or put it on hot food?
You can serve garlic aioli with hot food, but it is best added after cooking. High heat can cause the emulsion to separate and alter the fresh garlic flavour, so use it as a topping or dip rather than a cooking oil.
Is garlic aioli safe to eat during pregnancy?
Garlic aioli made with raw or undercooked eggs can carry a foodborne illness risk during pregnancy. Choose aioli made with pasteurized eggs or a commercially prepared product that has been stored as directed.
Is garlic aioli healthy?
Garlic aioli can fit into meals, but it is a rich, oil-based sauce rather than a substantial source of vegetables or protein. Use it as a dip or spread in a modest amount, especially if you are limiting added fats.

What is Garlic aioli?
Garlic aioli is a rich Mediterranean-style sauce made by emulsifying garlic with oil. Traditional versions rely on garlic and oil, while many modern recipes use a mayonnaise-style base for a smooth, creamy texture. Its savoury garlic bite makes it a flavourful dip or spread.
Serve it with chips, roasted vegetables, grilled fish or meat, or spread a little in a sandwich. In its Mediterranean homes, it often accompanies seafood and other simple dishes; it also works well as a table sauce in kitchens around the world. Garlic aioli is very high in fat, so a small spoonful goes a long way. For a lighter-feeling dip, stir a modest amount into plain yoghurt and add lemon.
