Ingredients
- 1 kg white asparagus
- 350 g young carrots (1 bunch)
- 250 g snow peas
- 3 sprigs flat-leaf parsley
- 3 sprigs chervil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp honey
- 40 g butter
- 0.5 lemon
- 3 egg yolks
- 0.5 tsp medium-hot mustard
- 100 ml vegetable stock
- 150 g yogurt (1.5% fat) (room temperature)
- white pepper
Instructions
- 1. Wash the asparagus, peel it thoroughly, and cut off the woody ends generously. Tie the stalks together into 4 bundles with kitchen twine if you like.
- 2. Peel the carrots, wash them, and halve or quarter them lengthwise depending on their thickness. Trim and wash the snow peas.
- 3. Wash the parsley and chervil, shake them dry, and pick off the leaves. Finely chop them with a large knife, place them on a small plate, and set aside.
- 4. Bring plenty of water with salt, honey, and 10 g of butter to a boil in a large, wide pot. Add the asparagus and cook it covered for 10 minutes.
- 5. Add the carrots and cook for another 5 minutes. Then add the snow peas and cook everything for another 5 minutes.
- 6. Meanwhile, melt the remaining butter in a small pot and set it aside. Squeeze the lemon. Fill a wide pot about halfway with water. Heat the water until it steams but does not boil.
- 7. Place the egg yolk with mustard and vegetable stock in a bowl (a pot with a rounded bottom). Place the bowl over the hot water bath so that it does not touch the water.
- 8. Whisk the egg-mustard mixture with a whisk or the beaters of a hand mixer until it is creamy and light. Gradually stir in the room-temperature yogurt spoonful by spoonful, then the melted butter in a thin stream.
- 9. Stir in the chopped herbs with the whisk. Season with 1–2 teaspoons of lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
- 10. Remove the vegetables with a slotted spoon, let them drain, and arrange them on a platter. Serve the sauce with the asparagus.
