Aioli - Homemade Garlic Mayonnaise

Aioli, an old Provencal word, essentially comes from two words: ail-garlic and oli-oil. Aioli can also be enjoyed with broiled fish, potatoes, crab-cakes, and yes French bread also. In Latin American and some Caribbean nations, aioli can also be enjoyed with fried yuca-a starchy root vegetable that in my humble opinion is best enjoyed fried. Although aioli is not exactly a diet food, it is all natural which in my opinion is a huge plus.
