Aioli vs Mayo explained quite simply;
Mayo = Oil + Eggs
Aioli = Oil + Garlic
As with all sauces and condiments I like to start small then build up the flavors using the “season to taste” method. So get a good base mix of 1 cup of mayo, 1/4 cup chopped parsley, 1/8 cup minced garlic, a good squeeze or about 2 teaspoons of lemon juice, and about 8-10 grinds of fresh sea salt and peppercorn. From there you can adjust amounts to fine tune your taste preferences using the season to taste method.
