I have something to share with you. Aioli is just a fancy word for flavored mayo. So garlic aioli = garlic-flavored mayonnaise.

If you omitted the roasted garlic, this would just be mayo, and I love me some mayo. Unfortunately, most mayo is made using rancid vegetable oils that are high in inflammatory omega-6 fatty acids. Since I’m trying to avoid heart disease, obesity and cancer, I tend to avoid store-bought mayo.

These are the ingredients in Hellman’s olive oil mayo:

WATER, SOYBEAN OIL, OLIVE OIL, WHOLE EGGS AND EGG YOLKS, MODIFIED POTATO STARCH, VINEGAR, SALT, SUGAR, LEMON JUICE, SORBIC ACID AND CALCIUM DISODIUM EDTA (USED TO PROTECT QUALITY), NATURAL FLAVOR, PAPRIKA OLEORESIN

GMOs, preservatives and sketchy ingredients. No thanks. It’s easier to just make my own and not inflame my insides.

This sounds amazing!
Can I make this with raw fermented garlic to add the probiotics instead of the whey or use Kombucha instead of whey? I cannot have dairy.
Thanks!

Would this recipe still work if I omitted the whey?
