Transfer the aioli to an airtight container. Cover and refrigerate to allow the flavors to meld and intensify. (at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight)
For the best flavor, use fresh, high-quality mayonnaise. Avoid using low-fat or flavored varieties.
Adjust the amount of garlic to your preference. If you prefer a milder flavor, start with 2 cloves and add more to taste.
Lemon zest intensifies the citrus notes. Be sure to only zest the yellow part of the lemon, avoiding the bitter white pith.
This aioli can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. The color may fade slightly over time, but the flavor will remain delicious.
Serve with grilled chicken or fish, use as a spread for sandwiches and wraps, or as a dipping sauce for roasted vegetables or fries.
