GARLIC MAYONNAISE


4 cloves garlic; peeled

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

kosher salt to taste

1 cup nonfat plain yogurt

1 large egg

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. With the side of chef's knife (or in a mortar with a pestle), mash
garlic with 1/2 teaspoon salt. You should have about 1 tablespoon mashed
garlic; set aside.

2. In a heavy medium saucepan, whisk together yogurt, egg and cornstarch.
Set over medium-low heat and cook, whisking constantly, until mixture
thickens; DO NOT let it boil. Transfer to a small bowl. Whisk in reserved
garlic, oil and lemon juice. Taste and adjust seasonings. Press a piece of
plastic wrap directly on the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Let
cool.

* NOTE: The mayonnaise can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days;
whisk briefly before using.
