Since I read about this weeks contest, I was wondering whether it is possible to make a sweet aioli for desserts with oil. <br />Then I thought to myself: If the Italians bake cakes with olive oil, I will at list try. <br />I didn’t want to use just sugar, and decided to use a fruit poaching liquid. <br />Since I didn’t have any fresh pears or figs, which are my favorites for poaching, I used dried fruits and neutral oil only. <br />The lemon zest and juice and all the fruits and spices dominate over the taste of oil, and make this Aioli perfect for serving alongside strudels, cakes and fruits. <br />Now I have a new task, to try clarified warm butter instead of oil. <br />
