Girl Carnivore Expert Recipe Tips
When it comes to this aioli, real maple syrup is important. Splurge. The viscosity and flavor are exactly what this homemade mayo needs to achieve the perfect creamy texture.
Add a pop of grated nutmeg or even clove for a deeper seasonal flavor to this aioli. It’s will be as unexpected and welcomed as our turmeric aioli recipe.
How to Use
This is a fun, unexpected, sweet, and yet savory dipping sauce or drizzle for so many dishes. It’s amazing with pulled pork, like we initially tested it on. But it’s also great for so many pork recipes. Try it with your roasted rack of pork or even a spiral sliced ham at the holiday dinner table (both Thanksgiving and Christmas) or with a grilled pork tenderloin on any day of the week.
This is a great sauce for jazzing up veggies like roast potatoes or roasted butternut squash. It’s fun as a sandwich spread for leftover chicken paninis or to jaz up an easy weeknight meal like one pan chicken and veggies. And it’s great paired with a roasted chicken power bowl loaded with greens, beets and carrots.
And if you really want a fun recipe, try it on our New England Brunch Burger, loaded with everything, even a fried egg.
How to Store sweet maple Aioli
Store leftover maple mayo in a glass jar (a mason jar) or airtight container in the fridge for up to 7 days. Give it a good stir when ready to use.
This homemade mayo can not be frozen as the emulsification doesn’t hold up to the freeze/thaw process. It’s best made fresh.
