La Chinata Aioli with extra virgin olive oil, 130g

This product is a high-quality and authentic version of the traditional Spanish garlic sauce Alioli (Ajo y Aceite). It is produced by the Spanish delicatessen brand La Chinata, known for its olive oil products.

Characteristics and Ingredients:

Base: The sauce is made with extra virgin olive oil (Aceite de Oliva Virgen Extra - AOVE) as its base. The extra virgin olive oil gives it a particularly mild, fruity, and high-quality taste compared to alioli made only with sunflower oil.

Taste: The alioli has an intense but creamy garlic flavor, rounded off by freshly squeezed lemon juice.

Consistency: It is characterized by a very creamy and thick texture.

Ingredients (typically, may vary slightly): Extra virgin olive oil, olive oil (refined and virgin), garlic, water, lemon juice, salt. (Important: Many traditional alioli varieties do not contain egg, which distinguishes them from mayonnaise. La Chinata often uses an egg-free recipe.)

Usage:

La Chinata's alioli is a versatile and creamy dip from Mediterranean cuisine. It is ideal as an accompaniment to:

Fish and seafood (e.g., squid, shrimp)

Meat and grilled vegetables

Potato dishes (e.g., Patatas Bravas or boiled potatoes)

Paella

For dipping bread (as tapas) or to enhance sandwiches and burgers.
