Information
Aioli is a condiment made from olive oil, garlic and eggs, which is very popular in many dishes. The question of whether you can eat aioli during pregnancy depends largely on how you prepare it. If you buy industrial aioli, then the answer is yes. Most marks of the Aioli contain cooked eggs, which means that the Aioli is sure to eat during pregnancy. However, it is important to check the label to make sure that the eggs are cooked before consuming. If you prepare your own aioli at home, then the answer is a little more complicated. Raw eggs are to be avoided during pregnancy because they can contain harmful bacteria, which can be dangerous for your baby. You must therefore make sure that you cook the eggs before adding them to your Aioli. In addition, you should avoid using raw dairy products, such as yogurt or crème fraîche, to prepare your aioli. In summary, you can eat aioli during pregnancy, provided you make sure that all the ingredients are cooked and without raw dairy products. If you prepare your aioli at home, be sure to cook the eggs.
