Aioli

 
I came across this word in a crossword recently. Aioli is a garlic mayonnaise, originating in the Provencal region of France. It is very rich and usually made from garlic, egg, lemon juice and olive oil.

    Hubby made this once. It was delicious! I can't remember what it went on though.

    Gosh. I use Aioli all the time. I used to buy it in France but the Stornoway Coop sells it now so I don't bother 'importing' it.
