Pro Tips
• For a milder garlic flavor, use roasted garlic instead of raw. Simply roast a head of garlic, squeeze out the cloves, and mash them before mixing.
• Use a microplane or garlic press to mince the garlic. This creates a finer paste that incorporates more smoothly into the mayonnaise, avoiding chunky bits.
• Adjust the consistency to your liking. For a thinner, more drizzle-able sauce, whisk in a teaspoon of water or extra lemon juice at a time until you reach the desired texture.
• Give it a spicy kick by adding ¼ teaspoon of red pepper flakes or a dash of your favorite hot sauce.
