This term was cultivated in the French region of Provence. Normally the garlic of aioli is crushed using your hands or a mortar and pestle, so the flavors of the garlic can come out into the sauce. But, if you see ...

I don't see that many people using this technique on their garlic, and they're really missing out. Roast garlic has a wonderful flavor ...
