Ingredients
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 2-3 tablespoons prepared horseradish well drained
- 1 clove garlic grated
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 pinch kosher salt
Instructions
- Add mayonnaise, prepared horseradish, garlic, fresh lemon juice and salt to a small bowl, ideally with a lid.
- Stir with whisk until blended.
- Cover and refrigerate until needed, at least an hour for flavors to meld together if not overnight. The longer the better honestly.
Notes
- Drain the horseradish well: Press out excess liquid so the aioli stays thick and creamy, not watery.
- Adjust the heat to taste: Horseradish strength varies by brand. Start with less, taste, and add more as needed.
- Chill for best flavor: Let the aioli rest in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight so the flavors meld. Stir before serving.
