    I have been served aioli on a vegetarian burger that was decidedly *not* vegan, because as he said here, it was not aoli. The extra clarifying word is needed because americans use aioli to mean "Flavored Mayo" often enough that the actual meaning is completely ambiguous, and so if people need it to not have egg, just saying aioli alone is not enough.

    As a spaniard ive been told that originally aioli was just garlic and olive oil but even if your getting homemade aioli your still getting it with an egg because it just makes it easier to use. The issue with not using an egg is that if you move grom where you made it to somewhere with a different temperature itll instantly seperate (for example when my parents made it outside in winter in spain and then went inside.). To me the real difference between aioli and mayo should be the fact that mayo will always have an acid of some sort, it changes between vinegar or lemon, ect but its always got an acid. Aioli on the other hand doesnt have an acid. Mayo also tends to be white for this reason as well as the fact that it tends to not use olive oil while aioli is a yellow colour (sorta). Anyway what im saying is that basically every aioli nowadays will have egg because otherwise it takes way too long to make, however real aioli will never have an acid

    If you want to taste the real thing do this: 1 garlic clove(bigger spicier) 1 egg yolk Extra virgin olive oil Salt You can use either a mortar(prefered) or a bowl with a whisk. Skin the garlic and put it in the mortar with salt to grind it into a thin paste, if you dont have it just cut it thinly then use salt and the knife blade to mash it into a paste. Once done with the garlic paste(pls use fresh garlic) add the eggyolk and mix it, starting to add olive oil progressively to emulsify it. If you dont wanna use egg switch the eggyolk for 5-6 garlic cloves, make a paste and then emulsify it with olive oil.

    Spaniard here: allioli, as it has already been mentioned in the comments, means garlic and olive oil in catalan. The original version is literally the same as the lebanese toum, minus the lemon (it was sometimes used; but it wasn’t mandatory. Just be warned, using AOVE instead of a neutral oil will make it taste so strongly you won’t be able to kiss anyone for a while lmao). Nowadays, as it is a harder sauce to emulsify and stabilize (and more time consuming, specially if you use the traditional pestle), most people eat and buy the so called “ajonesa” aka garlicmayo, because egg helps to make the strong flavor milder and yields a bigger emulsion jajajaja Unless from the catalan speaking zone of Spain, most people haven’t tried the original. (I personally love it, but it can be really really strong) So even if I personally haven’t tried the “””aioli””” from the USA, i don’t believe its flavour and composition is very far from the commercially available brands here jajaja BTW, heavy side eyeing by my part with the mention of an italian chef. But i understand to prevent the flame wars lmao. Anyways, if anyone is interested, The name allioli is both French and Spanish (but more heavily spanish) simply by virtue of the historic catalan speakers distribution (the actual territories made by the southern-east of France and the northern-east of Spain)

Not necessarily wrong because there’s obviously a Mediterranean overlap, but still curious as to why that was the example of choice. Evidently nitpicking here tho, keep it going w this series :)

    @@michealpersicko9531 I think there's a pretty significant and noticeable difference between homemade and Hellman's, depending on how you make it. It's certainly more noticeable if you whisk instead of stick blend, totally different consistency. The big advantage to homemade is that you can use any kind of fat you like; olive oil or bacon grease will yield a totally different result than neutral oil, and if you stick blend, it's trivially easy to add other flavors; my favorite combo is bacon grease, dijon, and capers. All that said, store-bought can be better for certain things, especially a classic/not-fancy burger.

    This is so true, and on top of aioli often being flavoured mayo, i urge everyone to watch one of the many short documentaries on youtube that explain how companies and restaurants profit off the use of fake truffle oil and other truffle products. sure it tastes like truffle, but its almost never actually truffle, which is crazy since they hike the price as though it is.

    garlic flavoured mayo, maybe? oil emulsified with egg yolk becomes mayo, then add garlic to flavour so it become garlic flavoured mayo? oil emulsified with garlic becomes aioli, it doesn't make sense to add egg yolk in aioli so I don't know what to call this. note: I don't eat mayo or aioli, and it's rare in my hometown, so this is what I just guess from my own common sense using what I learnt from this short and its comments.
