Healthy, because
Our competition for the delicious but very fat mayonnaise-based aioli does not need to hide behind the original. The spicy garlic cream is low in fat and cholesterol - and tastes great. In addition, the tofu with protein and iron scores points, and those who regularly consume garlic in particular benefit from the positive effects of the small tubers. The essential oil allicin can reduce high blood pressure as well as fat and cholesterol levels. In addition, it fights bacteria and fungi, so garlic has a healing effect on colds.
Even smarter
1 tablespoon of stirred in olive oil adds a little more fat to the Mediterranean taste, but only heart-healthy unsaturated fatty acids. If you like, mix 1 tablespoon of chive rolls or cress into the cream. Those who like to do without the salad cream use home-made mayonnaise instead.
