I couldn't get my aioli to take more than the two cups of olive oil. Should have read the recipe to the end- that's a lot of aioli. Anyways- sandwiches were great. Have to work on making the aioli, as I had scrambled eggs in the bottom of my blender. I got to a point that the mayo/aioli just got too thick to turn. Any tips, anyone???
