This amped-up flavored mayonnaise is a versatile, easy recipe to have in your arsenal as it enhances a wide variety of entrées and side dishes. Serve this deeply garlicky mayonnaise over roasted vegetables, grilled chicken, or seafood. It’s also terrific as a dressing for sliced tomatoes, salads, or sweet potato fries. The tangy buttermilk helps thin the mixture, making it more pourable and dippable, but you can use more to thin it to whatever consistency that you like. You will need half of a lemon to yield the zest and juice needed for this recipe. Feel free to stir in some chopped fresh or dried herbs, such as rosemary, basil, or oregano, into the aioli.
