Rouille

Directions

1. 1
   Using a mortar and pestle, mash the garlic until it's a thick puree. (Don't use a food processor, it incorporates air.).
2. 2
   Add salt, pound into a paste.
3. 3
   Add herbs, continue to mash.
4. 4
   Add bread crumbs and stock, mash until fully incorporated.
5. 5
   When all ingredients are indistinguishable, transfer to a heavy bowl.
6. 6
   Add the egg yolks, incorporate by mashing and stirring, in turn.
7. 7
   Add the red pepper, mashing and stirring.
8. 8
   Beat all together until sticky.
9. 9
   Continue beating, adding oil in a thin stream. (At this point a food processor is handy, or a stand mixer.).
10. 10
    When the oil is all added, the result should be a thick, heavy sauce, almost like a mayonniase or aioli.
11. 11
    Season to taste with hot sauce, salt and pepper.
