- Prepare Lemon Mayo: Blend egg yolks, 1 teaspoon of salt, lemon juice from 1 lemon, and 1/2 tablespoon of mustard with a hand blender until creamy. Gradually add neutral oil while continuing to blend until the mayo reaches the desired consistency.
- Assemble the Dish: On a plate, arrange a clean base followed by three good heaps of grilled asparagus, bread croutons, and a generous dollop of lemon mayo. Garnish with ramsons.
