To prepare the seasoning, pour the yolks into a convenient container, add vinegar, mustard, finely chopped garlic, spices to taste, and mix. Gradually add olive oil while stirring. After a minute, you will notice that the mixture starts to thicken. Begin to add oil more actively while constantly stirring, but not too quickly, as the mixture may curdle.
