Aioli is a creamy, garlicky condiment originating from Mediterranean cuisine, particularly popular in French and Spanish dishes. Traditionally, it is made by emulsifying garlic with olive oil and occasionally adding egg yolks and lemon juice to enhance its texture and flavor. Though modern variations include mayonnaise as a base, authentic aioli boasts a rich, bold flavor primarily derived from the garlic and olive oil. Olive oil contributes monounsaturated fats that support heart health, while garlic is known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. However, aioli can be calorie-dense due to its high fat content, making moderate consumption key for a balanced diet. Commonly paired with seafood, vegetables, or used as a dipping sauce, aioli offers a luxurious and versatile addition to meals while reflecting the vibrant flavors of its Mediterranean roots.
