Basil Aioli
- Reviews 1
Ready In: 10 mins
Yields: 1 1/2 cups
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic clove
- 2 coddled eggs
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1⁄4 cup chopped fresh basil
Directions
- * to coddle the eggs, place whole egg (in the shell) into simmering water for 1 minute then remove and chill under cold running water. This is to make sure you have no salmonella in your yolk. You could use pasturized eggs, I suppose.
- Place the garlic (finely chopped), egg yolks and dijon into a stainless steel bowl and whisk together.
- whisk in the lemon juice.
- in a slow stream, add in the olive oil, whisking constantly until it is fully incorporated. This will thicken as it is whisked, so add a bit of water along the way if it gets too thick.
- Season with salt.
- Stir in the basil (very finely chopped).
