Rouille

French Bistro · France · 25 min · Serves 10

The Story

Rouille should taste warm and deep, not just spicy. The saffron and garlic do the lifting, and the chili is there to push from underneath.

1

Warm the stock, add the saffron, and let it steep 10 minutes.

2

Blend the garlic confit, egg yolks, vinegar, chili, and salt.

3

Emulsify in half the olive oil, then blend in the saffron stock.

4

Add the remaining oil until thick and glossy. Finish with lemon juice and taste for salt.

Jason's Notes

Rouille brings heat, garlic, and saffron to the table in one swipe. It should feel somewhere between a sauce and a thick mayonnaise.
