(See this recipe for Roasted Garlic Macaroni and Cheese for additional step-by-step photos for roasting garlic.)Remove the roasted garlic from the oven and squeeze the cloves into a medium bowl. Add the mayonnaise and lemon juice, mashing with a fork until combined. Season the aioli with salt and pepper to taste.
