Garlic Mayonnaise Pizza Sauce

The flavors of this classic aioli go with just about anything: meat, fish or vegetables.

A small dollop dresses up the most ordinary dishes.

Makes about 11/2 cups

Ingredients

  • 2 cloves fresh garlic, smashed to a paste with a mortar and pestle or finely minced
  • 2 yolks from pasteurized eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 cup extra-virgin olive oil, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Directions

Procedure: Place garlic in a large bowl. Add yolks and mustard and begin to whip, using a wire whisk. As mixture begins to thicken, begin to add oil, a few drops at a time, continuously whisking. Once half the oil has been added, aioli should be thick and creamy. Add remainder of oil in a thin, steady stream. Finish with lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper.

Presentation: Serve immediately, or refrigerate for later use, no longer than 5 days.
