Aïoli (Traditional Provençal Garlic and Olive Oil Sauce) with garlic cloves, extra virgin olive oil and egg yolk — France recipe

Aïoli (Traditional Provençal Garlic and Olive Oil Sauce)

Aïoli is the classic Provençal garlic and olive oil sauce — a thick, glossy, intensely garlicky emulsion made from raw garlic, egg yolk, and extra virgin olive oil. Its name comes from Occitan: alh (garlic) and òli (oil). The authentic 'aïoli véritable' uses no egg and relies purely on garlic's emulsifying compounds, but Larousse Gastronomique and modern French restaurants now standardize the egg-yolk version as 'aïoli'. In Provence, this sauce is the centerpiece of Le Grand Aïoli — a Friday lunch of boiled vegetables, salt cod, and hard-boiled eggs all dipped into a communal bowl. Vegetarian, gluten-free, keto-friendly. Active work 15 minutes, no cooking. Yields 250 ml, serves 8.

Baked Carp in Sour Cream (Ukrainian)

Baked carp in sour cream is a Ukrainian classic: a whole fish coated in a garlicky sour-cream layer on a bed of onions. Diagonal slashes along the sides let the sour cream and heat reach inside and soften the fine bones. The foil is left open on top so the skin browns while the flesh stays moist.

Beurre Blanc (Classic French Loire Valley White Butter Sauce) with unsalted European butter, dry white wine and shallots — France recipe

🇫🇷FranceEasy

Sauces and Dips

Beurre Blanc (Classic French Loire Valley White Butter Sauce)

Beurre blanc is a French sauce from the Loire Valley, around Nantes: a reduction of dry white wine, white wine vinegar and finely chopped shallots into which cold butter is whisked until the sauce turns pale, glossy and creamy. By the most common account it was invented around 1890 by Clémence Lefeuvre, a cook near Nantes. It is served warm over poached or pan-fried white fish, scallops, lobster, asparagus and poached eggs; the traditional partner is Loire pike. The sauce is light yellow and slightly sharp from the wine and vinegar, with a soft sweetness from the shallots.

Brandade de Morue (Provençal Salt Cod and Olive Oil Spread from Nîmes) with salt cod loin, garlic and whole milk — France recipe

Brandade de Morue (Provençal Salt Cod and Olive Oil Spread from Nîmes)

Brandade de Morue is the southern French classic from Nîmes, in Languedoc, an emulsion of desalted cod, olive oil, milk, and garlic. The name comes from Occitan 'brandar' — to stir, to shake — describing the vigorous beating that turns flaked cod and oil into a creamy spread. The first printed recipe is in Charles Durand's cookbook of 1830; the Nîmes version is made without potato. This recipe keeps to that: cod, oil, milk and garlic, nothing else. Spread on toasted baguette, baked into a gratin, or used as a dip with raw vegetables. The spread itself is gluten-free and low in carbohydrates (serve it with gluten-free bread or raw vegetables if that matters; keto-friendly when no potato is added and it is eaten without the croutons). Active time about 50 minutes plus 24–48 hours of soaking the salt cod. Yields about 900 g, serves 8 (roughly 110 g each) as appetizer with crostini, salad, and chilled rosé.
