INSTRUCTIONS

Steam the eggs in the shell for 50 minutes in a steamer or in a water bath at 65 ° C.
After steaming, carefully crack the egg shells open and let the eggs slide out.
For the celery cream: froth the butter in a pot and sweat the shallots (do not allow them to change colour). Add the celery cubes and sauté briefly. Season with salt and white pepper; pour in the cream, water and Tomami Vegami. Cover and gently simmer until the celery is tender. Transfer to a kitchen mixer and mix to a fine, smooth cream. Regulate the amount of liquid depending on the desired consistency. Season with salt, white pepper and a few flakes of butter.
Cut off the ends of the asparagus and blanch in plenty of salted water until al dente. Slice the asparagus into small diamond shapes and fry briefly in a little butter. Season with salt and pepper.
Heat a shallow pot and allow the sugar to gradually caramelize. Carefully deglaze with the vinegar and dissolve the caramel. Season with salt. Cut the radishes into thick slices. Bring the brew to the boil, reduce and add the radishes. Glaze the radishes with the butter and the vinegar/caramel mixuture.
