Garlic-Herb Sandwich Spread
Amped up mayo adds flavor and dimension to burgers and sandwiches. All measurements are flexible- feel free to adapt to taste! More lemon, whatever combo of herbs you have, etc.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
- 1 large clove garlic
- 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice more to taste
- zest from 1/2 lemon 1/4-1/2 teaspoon, more to taste
- 1/2-1 teaspoon finely minced fresh rosemary
- 1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh basil
- *note that herbs are excellent but if you don't have any, it's also fantastic with just lemon and garlic.
Instructions
- Place mayo in a small mixing bowl. Add zest and then juice of lemon. Press or finely mince garlic. Finely mince all herbs and add to mayo mixture. Whisk until smooth.
- This is best if made ahead (at least an hour) so flavors have a chance to marry and intensify. But if you need to eat it right away, go for it.
Notes
This is best with fresh herbs, but if you want to make it with dried, just remember the rule of thumb is 1 part dry herbs = 3 parts fresh. Feel free to eyeball!
