NOTES : Aioli, the classic Mediterranean garlic mayonnaise, gets a makeover.

Whipped silken tofu, the ultrasmooth kind that comes in little vacuum-packed

boxes, does the best mayonnaise impersonation this side of Provence,

bringing the fat and cholesterol content way down and the protein component

way up in the process. Horseradish, garlic, and lemon spike the tofu with a

perfect zip.

 

Adding some real mayonnaise to this sauce gives it some extra richness. But

it's not necessary - the Aioli tastes great either way.
