Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

I find a recipe in my Encyclopedia of Cooking by JoAnna Morris for aioli. Here it is: Remove the crusts from bread and soak in milk. Squeeze dry. Place in large mortar with garlic & mash with pestle until a fine paste. Add the yolks & salt & mash in. Drop by drop pound in olive oil. When the sauce becomes thick; the remaining oil may be beaten in. Thin with water & lemon juice to taste. FROM: PAM HOUGLAN (KFNR49B)
