Trying that soon! Thank you attimus.

No prob, the squeeze bottle is where it's at for emulsifying. Way better control than pouring out of a cup.

As far as aioli, take desired amount of mayo to convert add finely chopped parsley and garlic and a few dashes of lemon juice. This can all be to taste as one person's preference for garlic may not be anothers. Aioli basically means mayo with garlic, this is a basic recipe that can be given many creative levels. Think along the lines of whatever you put into it becomes
_____ aoili. Some ideas include hot sauces or jalepeno. Bacon. Pesto. You get the gist.

That's what I do for aioli... Mayo garlic and lemon juice. It tastes good. Just have never made my own mayo before.
 
Any suggestions for Haddock? I have never had it or cooked it. Thanks

Same here bit. Believe it's a white fish similar to cod and rather nuetral, so my initial would be fish and chips. Smoking it would be another good option topped with maybe a red pepper couli or some over vibrant sauce. A good lemon lime soy olive oil and garlic with a little cilantro marinade would probably work well if you were to pan fry. Options to lightly flour or not. White fish can be rather versatile.

I use dijon mustard, and I prefer Canola oil
For the Aioli: Sage/ Basil. kosher salt, olive oil, 4-5 garlic cloves,you put all the ingridiant in mortar and you beat the hell out of them until you get a smooth paset. Add this to the wonderful mayo you made and fix flavors.
