Get your whisks or blenders ready, my friends! We’re making creamy, spicy Chipotle Aioli today, and you’re going to love it. If you’ve never made your own homemade aioli, it’s time to start. It is easier than you might think, and they are addictively delicious. An aioli is very much like a mayonnaise, a thick and creamy sauce that you can enjoy on it’s own or blend with other ingredients to build a world of rich and zesty sauces. I find aioli sauces superior to store bought mayo-based sauces as they are full fat and very fresh without any preservatives or other add-ins. They’re just so much more flavorful, and easy to make for any home cook. This chipotle aioli hits all the right notes, extra creamy, just the right amount of chipotle heat and tanginess, and there are so many ways to use it. This is going to be a regular in your kitchen from now on. You’ll want to put chipotle aioli on everything. Let’s talk about how to make chipotle aioli, shall we? Got any questions? Ask away!
