Ingredients

  • 1 large egg yolk

  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

  • 1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar

  • 1 teaspoon chopped garlic

  • 1 cup olive oil

  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

  • ½ teaspoon finely chopped fresh sage

  • ½ teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary

  • ½ teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme

  • Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Directions

  1. In a food processor fitted with the steel blade, combine the egg yolk, lemon juice, mustard, vinegar, and garlic. With the machine running, slowly pour the olive oil in a slow, steady stream through the feed tube. The mixture will emulsify into a mayonnaise. Add the herbs, and process to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Remove the aioli to a small bowl, cover, and keep refrigerated.
