Lavender Honey Aïoli
This unusual aïoli is good on any kind of grilled meat, especially lamb, and the tasty little chickens known as poussins. You might also serve it with roasted artichoke quarters. For this recipe you can steep your own lavender honey, as described below, or simply buy a good-quality lavender honey from Provence.
Cooks' Note
For a mellower flavor, feel free to substitute for the raw garlic an equal amount of Garlic Confit (p.193), plus a teaspoon or two of its garlicky oil.
