AIOLI****Orange and Saffron Aïoli

By Unblond1

Had with seafood and clam bourride. Very good. Also try with steamed or grilled fish.

Update - 6/9/11 - I had it with Mediterranean Tuna Cakes and it overpowered them - it's still very good but it was too strong for that dish. Again - try with a simple steamed or poached fish.
