Notes

#1: It is better to add the olive oil slowly while mixing. This way it will incorporate better into the rest of the ingredients and you will add till you reach the desired consistency for this amazing garlic aioli sauce.
#2: Use a garlic press or mortar and pestle to easily mince fresh garlic. You can also use a Microplane grater to finely grate the garlic cloves instead of mincing them.
#3: Fresh ingredients are definitely better, especially when it comes to homemade sauces. So, avoid using store-bought chopped garlic and use fresh ones. They are only two so no extra time is needed to peel and mince.
#4: Leave the garlic aioli sauce in an airtight container in the fridge for around 30 minutes before serving. The ingredients will get into harmony and get a chilling refreshing touch!
#5: Olive oil has an intense flavor. It might be spicy or bitter, so it may overpower the flavors of the other ingredients. Carefully choose the brand that you use. If it is too powerful, you can add other more neutral vegetable oil like grapeseed oil or avocado oil.
#6: Freezing garlic aioli sauce is not recommended. Mayonnaise does not freeze well. When it thaws, it will lose its creamy texture.
