There are many uses for a good aioli, but one of the hands-down best for this rich, creamy spread is on a burger. A bright, citrusy, dill-infused aioli is one of the secrets to the success of Venice restaurant and wine bar Dudley Market’s acclaimed burger — an item that owner and operator Conner Mitchell can’t remove from the menu for fear of an uprising.
“It gives you freshness, it gives you a kick,” he said of his vibrant variety. “If you're not going to have any acid from pickles or peppers or marinated onions or anything like that, something has to cut it.” [the fattiness].”
A sprinkling of fresh dill adds an herbaceous note to Dudley Market's aioli, which pairs well with the rest of this seafood-focused restaurant's menu. The dressing is also enhanced with champagne vinegar, fresh lemon juice, and Dijon mustard, as well as raw garlic, which add a light, flavorful kick. Use Dudley Market's dill aioli recipe on burgers at home, or as a dip for fries, a marinade for meats, or a spread on seafood.
