    Truffles are so wonderful to cook with. I love experimenting with them. That's why I decided to create this delicious sauce. It's easy, delicious, and it pairs well with all kinds of foods.

    White Truffle Aioli Recipe

    This was inspired by another creamy sauce recipe on this site, and pairs well with this amazing pretzel recipe. It's just one of many that you can use with this tasty sauce.

    Ingredients

    It only takes a few simple ingredients to make this recipe. The only fancy one on this list is the truffle oil and even that can be easily found at almost any grocery store.

    • Mayonnaise
    • Sour cream
    • White truffle oil
    • Garlic cloves
    • Lemon zest
    • Kosher salt
    • Freshly ground pepper

    See the recipe card at the end of the post for quantities.

    Instructions

    Making this delicious sauce couldn't be easier, and I mean that in the literal sense. It only takes two steps!

    Step 1: Prep

    Measure all of your ingredients and grate the garlic cloves.

    Step 2: Mix the Sauce

    Whisk the mayonnaise, sour cream, truffle oil, garlic, lemon zest, and salt and pepper together in a bowl. Refrigerate or set aside until ready to use.

    Hint: To make things easier, you can use a food processor to process your garlic rather than try to grate it without grating your fingers as well.

    Tips

    This is a super easy recipe, but as always, I have some tips to make it great rather than just good.

    • If you're making this ahead of time, use a bit less garlic as the garlic flavor intensifies over time.
    • There aren't many ingredients, but be sure you mix it thoroughly nonetheless so you don't end up with blobs of garlic.

      Umm wow! This was a great base aioli recipe for my tuna patties! I used asafetida instead of garlic and a little coriander (cilantro seed) powder then made it ahead of time so flavors can dissolve and incorporate. I only added some fresh herbs a few minutes before when pouring or dipping for specific dishes. Thank you!!!
