Roasted Garlic Aioli Recipe
- 1 small head of garlic
- 1/2 cup plus 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 egg yolk
- 1/2 cup grapeseed or vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- Kosher salt
- Heat the oven to 375 degrees F and arrange a rack in the middle.
- Peel any loose outer skins from the garlic head and cut off the top quarter to expose the cloves.
- Place the head cut-side up on a piece of foil, drizzle with 2 teaspoons of the olive oil, and wrap tightly to form a foil packet.
- Place on a baking sheet and bake until the garlic cloves are golden brown and very tender, about 60 to 75 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, open the packet, and let the garlic sit until its cool enough to handle.
- Squeeze the roasted cloves from their skins into a small bowl.
- Place the roasted garlic, mustard, and egg yolk in a food processor fitted with a blade attachment.
- Process until evenly combined, about 10 seconds.
- With the motor running, slowly add the remaining 1/2 cup olive oil in a thin stream, followed by the grapeseed or vegetable oil, until completely combined, about 2 minutes.
- Stop the processor, add the lemon juice, season with salt, and pulse until thoroughly mixed.
- Stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula, then pulse until all of the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Let the aioli sit for at least 30 minutes before using.
