Aioli
"For the SERIOUS garlic lovers only! :) I saw this made on Julia Child's show and had to try it. We used to have something very similar at a Spanish restaurant in San Diego and would CRAVE the stuff in between visits. This is pretty darn close. It's kind of a garlicky mayonnaise. We usually dip some nice bread into it, or artichokes. It's best if you use a mortar and pestle. You don't want to whip air into it."
