Garlic mayonnaise special

Cut the crust off the toast and soak the bread in the milk, then squeeze it well and place it in a bowl. Press in the garlic cloves, then mix with the egg yolk until smooth. Now add a thin stream of olive oil, whisking vigorously with a whisk until a mayonnaise-like paste forms. Finally, season generously with lemon juice, sugar, salt, and plenty of pepper. Paired with crusty bread and a glass of wine, this aioli makes the basis for a convivial snack and shortens the wait for hungry guests before the actual meal arrives.
