Smoky aïoli is a creamy, garlic-infused condiment that includes a distinct smoky flavor. It is a versatile sauce used for dipping, spreading, and as a topping for a variety of foods.
The smoky element can be added in several ways:
Smoked paprika: One of the most common methods, this uses Spanish smoked paprika to lend a smoky flavor, along with the paprika's characteristic taste.
Liquid smoke: This can be added in a small amount to mayonnaise to achieve a smoky taste.
Smoked ingredients: Some recipes use ingredients that have been smoked beforehand, such as smoked garlic or smoked olive oil.
Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce: Chipotle peppers are smoked, dried jalapeños, and using them provides both heat and smokiness.
Barbecue flavorings: Other flavorings, like smoked barbecue sauce or spices, can also be used.
Common uses
Dipping sauce: Perfect for fries, onion rings, roasted potatoes, chicken, and seafood.
Sandwich or burger spread: Adds a savory, smoky boost to burgers, turkey sandwiches, and wraps.
Topping: A delicious accompaniment for grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and tacos.
