Horseradish Aioli

This spicy and creamy horseradish aioli makes an otherwise bland turkey burger epic and indulgent–especially with caramelized onions.  For only 1sp for 3 tablespoons, this creamy sauce is perfect for turkey or beef burgers to really elevate a cookout and make it something special.  

Top your burgers with horseradish aioli

My turkey burgers are pretty fantastic on their own, but topped with caramelized onions, swiss, arugula, and my horseradish aioli? You’ve got an indulgent, restaurant-quality burger everyone will love.

Turkey burgers are only as bland as you let them be. They are a blank canvas, begging to be turned into something decadent.  In comes this sauce. While I admittedly wasn’t the biggest horseradish person before, this sauce is amazing. It hits you in the face with flavor.

I’ve also served this sauce as part of a roast beef sandwich using deli meat. Try my French Dip and French Onion soup recipe, or check out the turkey burgers that form the base for this sauce.

What is an “aioli,” anyway?

An aioli is basically a mayonnaise-like sauce that combines creamy elements with other flavors. Traditionally, it is a combination of garlic and oil, but it is often combined with egg as well. For our purposes, it is a rich, creamy sauce.

The recipe below yields 2 3/4 cups total, and it is 1sp for 3 tbsp of amazingness. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
