Wild garlic aioli without egg
March 20th, 2018 | starter
I bought the first bunch of wild garlic on the market. You might think it’s finally spring! In our garden, the wild garlic, however, has only dared one to two centimeters to the frosty air. No matter, now begins the delicious wild garlic time, which then merges seamlessly into the culinary at least as great asparagus time. Under the motto “It does not get any greener”, I stirred up a wild garlic aioli for you as a prelude.
The inspiration for this aioli I got during our last visit to La Palma/Canary Islands. There, the owner of the restaurant Enriclai offered a very fine rocket aioli “without egg”, as she always emphasized. After some fiddling, the quantities are right and the aioli is really a blast – as a sauce for the first BBQ of the year or as a small starter plate: brush toasted bread with aioli, a few olives and cheese cubes – done.
You can vary the spicyness of the aioli depending on your taste. With about 10 g wild garlic you get a rather mild cream. With 20 g of it, the whole thing has a fine spiciness that you would not necessarily expect from the wild garlic. By the way, you can prepare the aioli also with rocket salad and a bit of garlic.
Note: the aioli seems to be a bit liquid at the beginning, but the consistency changes after a short while, it gets more creamy.

White halibut & wild garlic – that fits
The best thing when buying fish is always to be guided by the display at the fishmonger or on the fish market. We are happy to follow the special recommendations of our fishmonger, and then we are sure to have the best and freshest fish in the pan. But what do you do with the newly purchased fish? At this time of year, a wild garlic and white wine sauce is just the thing!
