Garlic Saffron Mayonnaise Recipes

Steps:

• In a food processor or blender puree small clove garlic, 1/4 teaspoon saffron dissolved in some rice vinegar; tablespoon pimentos. Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup mayonnaise or to taste. Add more rice vinegar to taste and season with salt and crushed red pepper. Thin with water if you wish.

Steps:

• Bring water and saffron just to boil in heavy small saucepan. Remove from heat. Stir and let steep 15 minutes to release saffron color and flavor.
• Whisk mayonnaise, lemon juice and garlic to blend in small bowl. Gradually whisk in saffron water. Cover and store in refrigerator.

Steps:

• 1. Finely chop the garlic. Sprinkle a pinch of salt over the garlic and continue chopping and smashing it with the side of your knife to form a coarse paste. Transfer the paste to a medium mixing bowl.
• 2. Add the egg yolk, lemon juice, saffron and its soaking water, breadcrumbs, and a pinch of cayenne and black peppers. Whisk to combine the ingredients. Continue whisking constantly while drizzling the olive oil into the bowl in a slow, steady stream. When all of the oil is included, the mixture should have a consistency similar to that of mayonnaise. Serve the rouille or store it in the refrigerator, covered or jarred, for future use.

Steps:

• Bring water and saffron just to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove from heat. Stir, then let steep, uncovered, 10 minutes, to release saffron color and flavor.
• Whisk together mayonnaise, sherry vinegar, and garlic in a bowl. Gradually whisk in saffron water.

Steps:

• SAFFRON MAYONNAISE: Grind 2 pinches of saffron in a mortar and add 1 tablespoon boiling water to infuse for several minutes. Stir this into 1 cup of mayonnaise. Serve with roasted red peppers and tomatoes, fried potatoes, Mediterranean soups, lentil or chickpeas.
• GARLIC MAYONNAISE: Coarsely chop 4 to 6 cloves garlic. Transfer into a mortar and pound with a pinch of salt until it turns into a paste. Stir into a cup of mayonnaise and add a little lemon juice to taste. Serve with chargrilled summer vegetables (eggplant, zucchini and charred red onion), a summer vegetable soup, or use as a dip for crudite.
• DILL AND LEMON MAYONNAISE: Add a quarter cup of chopped dill, 1 teaspoon lemon zest and lemon juice to taste to 1 cup mayonnaise. Serve with poached eggs, steamed vegetables and boiled new potatoes

Steps:

• Combine egg, garlic, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a bowl; whisk with a fork until well combined. Using a hand immersion blender, slowly add olive oil in a small stream and blend until creamy.

Steps:

• Put the saffron in a small bowl with 1 tbsp boiling water. Leave for 10 mins to cool and for the water to turn a golden colour.
• Meanwhile, put the egg yolks, garlic, mustard and lemon juice in a jug or a tall container with a pinch of salt and blitz with a stick blender (or in a food processor) until smooth. Slowly add the olive oil, a small drizzle at a time, keeping the blender on, until you get a thick, glossy mayonnaise. Season with black pepper, then stir in the saffron water to loosen the aïoli and turn it a golden hue. Cover the surface and chill until ready to serve. Add a splash of water or lemon juice, to serve, if your aïoli thickens up too much in the fridge.

Steps:

• Put the egg yolks in a mixing bowl and lightly whisk, then add the oil, a short drizzle at a time while continuing to whisk. This technique is important because the oil and egg will otherwise not emulsify. Mix in the garlic, mustard and vinegar, if using, and ¼ tsp salt. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Will keep chilled in a jar for up to three days.

Steps:

• Process egg, mustard, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor until pale and foamy, about 1 1/2 minutes. Combine oils; with machine running, add oil, drop by drop, through feed tube until mixture begins to thicken (about 1/4 cup oil; do not stop the machine). Add remaining oil in a slow, steady stream, processing until incorporated. Gradually add 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
• Grind saffron with a mortar and pestle. Transfer to a bowl. Add 1 teaspoon lemon juice; let stand until liquid turns yellow, 5 minutes. Strain; discard threads.
• Put mayonnaise into a small bowl; drizzle in saffron liquid, stirring. Season with salt, if desired. Cover; refrigerate until ready to serve, or overnight.

Steps:

• Steep the saffron threads in warm water for about 10 minutes. Drain water, but don't allow threads to dry out.
• Combine mayonnaise, and lemon juice with a wire whisk, mixing together until uniform.
• Add pressed garlic, only 1/2 of saffron threads, 1 teaspoon of saffron powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper and continue to mix once again until uniform in texture.
• Use remaining saffron threads to garnish aioli in a small ramekin, bowl, or directly on top of food. Serve cool to slightly below room temperature.

Steps:

• Put the egg yolks, mustard, and garlic in a food processor (or blender) and purée 30 seconds.
• With the machine still running, start to add the olive oil, drop by drop until it is thick and smooth. When it reaches this consistency, start to add the oil in a slow steady stream until gone.
• Dissolve the saffron threads in the warm white wine and add to the blender.
• Transfer to a bowl and taste. Stir in salt and lemon juice to season.
• Serve as an accompaniment to bouillabaisse or other fish soup. It may also be used as a dip.
