Once the mixture has thickened and emulsified, whisk in the lemon juice. This will add a tangy flavor and help balance the richness of the sauce.

Season the aioli with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the amount of horseradish and mustard according to your preference for spiciness and flavor intensity.
