Tips/Tricks

  • I have made this with both 1 and 2 egg yolks. Both work but adding the 2nd egg yolk makes a firmer aioli so it depends upon of you want it runny or firmer.
  • 3 chipotles is the spice level I like but might be best to start with 2 and see how you go. Chipotles last for AGES in the fridge so you can always make a new batch next week!
  • the amount of olive oil depends upon the eggs used so add oil gradually and check the consistency of your aioli as you make it.
