Préparation
Sponge cake
- Mix all ingredients, season with salt and pepper. Strain finely, pour into a siphon and fill with two gas cartridges. Chill for 30 minutes. If you do not have a siphon you can skip this step and pour directly into the cups.
- Pierce 6 holes in the bottom of each paper cup with a small knife. Fill until about 1/3 full and microwave at 800W (high power) for 35 seconds or until the biscuit is well set. Remove and pour onto a plate to finish baking. After a few minutes, remove the cake from the pan with a small knife. Cut in half to obtain 4 circles about 2cm high and make small pieces with the rest.
Pickled radishes
- Cut the red radishes into quarters and place in a small container. Leave part of the green heads. Peel the pink meat radishes and cut into thin slices with a knife or mandolin, then set aside in a small container.
- Heat the sugar, white vinegar, water and a little salt and pepper in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Pour over the radishes so that they are well covered and leave to cool to room temperature.
Garnish
- Cut the morels in half. Fry them in olive oil, chopped shallots, salt and pepper for a few minutes. Deglaze with cognac, add chopped parsley and remove from heat.
- Remove the hard part of the white asparagus, peel them, keep the heads and cut the tails into thin strips like tagliatelle.
- Remove the hard part of the green asparagus, cut it into thin strips like tagliatelle.
- Bring a pan of water to the boil, add salt and plunge in the white asparagus for 1 minute, add the green asparagus and cook for another minute. Remove the asparagus and drop in an ice bath to stop the cooking.
- Fry the white and green asparagus in a pan with olive oil and shallots for 1 minute, season and set aside.
- In a pan of boiling water, immerse the eggs for 5 minutes. Remove them and carefully place in an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Carefully remove the shells from the eggs.
- Plate and garnish to your own desire.
