3. Meanwhile, to make Garlic Mayonnaise: Put vinegar, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt and mustard into a bowl, and whisk until salt and mustard are dispersed. Add egg yolks, and beat until smooth. Add oil, drop by drop at first, and later in a slow, steady stream, whisking until oil is incorporated into an emulsion. Chop garlic, and rub it into a paste with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Pour boiling water over garlic paste, stir well and whisk into mayonnaise. Drizzle about 6 tablespoons Garlic Mayonnaise over salad, thinning with more hot water if needed.
