Roasting the garlic intensifies its sweetness and adds a huge amount of flavor to this aioli. The silken tofu purees to make this aioli super smooth and creamy. It only takes just a few minutes to make, and there’s another bonus: It’s vegan! We suggest you use as a dip for crudités, a sandwich or burger spread, or a sauce for grilled fish. It's incredibly versatile, so you can get creative with where you use it.

Carefully unwrap garlic. Working over blender, squeeze bottom of garlic bulb to release cloves from skins and into blender. Add tofu, lemon juice, and mustard and purée until smooth, stopping to scrape down blender as needed. With blender running, add just enough water (1 to 2 tbsp) to make smooth paste. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Transfer aioli to jar with lid. Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
