Pro Tips:

If using dried dill weed, reduce the amount of dill weed to 1 teaspoon.
For the best flavor, this sauce needs to chill in the fridge for at least 15 minutes. The flavors get better the longer it sits in the fridge. When preparing a meal, I recommend making this aioli first so that it can chill in the fridge while you prepare the rest of your meal.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
