Preparation
Step 1: Preparing the asparagus
- Peel the green asparagus and cook them in salted water (25 g of coarse salt per litre) until they are tender and a little firm.
- Remove the tips at about 5 cm and reserve them in about 250 g of iced water.
- Cook the tails again until they become very soft. Once cooked, mix them in a blender with the vegetable stock and the gelatin, previously soaked in very cold water.
Step 2: Rest
- Let the preparation cool for 3 hours in the fridge.
Step 3: Seasoning and preparation of poached egg
- Add the whipped cream and adjust the seasoning to your liking.
- Drain and cut the asparagus tips diagonally, season.
- Poach the eggs for 5 minutes and 15 seconds in simmering water.
- Peel them and keep them cool.
Assembly and finishing:
- Arrange in a glass with the creamy mixture at the bottom, then the soft-boiled egg and finally cover everything with the green asparagus tips at an angle.
