Chef's Note

In spa cuisine, egg yolks are often used to thicken sauces. The whites can be used to make desserts; they freeze very well. Store them in small containers, making a note of how many whites are in each.

- 500 g (18 oz.) Asparagus, (300 g cultivated, 200 g wild)
- 50 g (2 oz.) cucumber

- 1 small container of plain yogurt
- 1 soft-boiled egg
- Salt and pepper
- 1 tsp. lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp. Dijon mustard

  3. Soft boil the egg. Combine the egg yolk, mustard, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Blend in the yogurt, then the vegetables.
