What To Serve With Garlic Aioli
Aioli is a highly versatile sauce that pairs well with anything from crab cakes to crispy French fries. Try this 5-star condiment recipe as a spread for burgers or as a partner for grilled seafood. Use garlic aioli anytime you need a bright, luscious burst of flavor to bring out the best in your favorite dishes.
How to Store Aioli
While garlic aioli is best enjoyed on the day it's made, it will last up to 7-10 days in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Avoid freezing, as the mayonnaise will split and become unpalatable.
Allrecipes Community Tips and Praise
"I made this as instructed but roasted, mashed, then diced the garlic before adding to the condiment," says Jan. "This was such an easy recipe and really elevated my grilled chicken sandwiches. I will definitely make this again."
"Easy to make with ingredients normally in the pantry," says home cook MEB. "For some strange reason, I was out of fresh garlic so used granulated. Delicious. This time it was perfect for dipping steamed artichokes but I can foresee many other uses."
"Very good and so much easier than from scratch," shares dwhite0849. "For health reasons I used half mayo and half Greek Yogurt...a little tart but like everything else in life more garlic fixed it."
