Aioli is a creamy sauce originating from the Mediterranean region, particularly France, Spain, and Italy. Traditionally made by emulsifying garlic with olive oil, modern variations often incorporate egg yolks, lemon juice, and sometimes mustard for extra richness and flavor. Known for its bold, garlicky taste, aioli is popular as a dip, spread, or accompaniment to vegetables, seafood, and grilled dishes. Olive oil, a primary ingredient, is a heart-healthy fat, rich in antioxidants and monounsaturated fats that support cardiovascular health. However, its calorie density, along with added egg yolks, can contribute to a high fat content, making moderation key for those monitoring calorie intake. While garlic provides anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties, store-bought versions may contain added preservatives or lower-quality oils. Opt for homemade or high-quality options to maximize nutritional benefits and maintain the essence of this Mediterranean staple.
