Ingredients:

Serving

2 medium fennel bulbs
1/4 head cauliflower, broken into large florets
1/2 lb asparagus, trimmed
3 large egg yolks
1 garlic clove, grated (use a microplane)
2 flat anchovy fillets in oil, chopped
1 tsp dijon mustard
1 tbsp plus 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup vegetable oil

Directions:

Trim fennel (reserving fronds) and remove tough outer layer. Thinly slice fennel crosswise and cauliflower lengthwise (1/8 inch). Slice asparagus on a diagonal (1/8 inch). Combine vegetables in a large bowl.
Purée yolks, garlic, anchovies, mustard, lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a blender. With motor running, add oil in a slow stream, blending until dressing is thick and emulsified.
Toss vegetables with enough dressing to coat. Season with salt. Sprinkle with fennel fronds.
What to drink:Fontaleoni Vernaccia di San Gimignano '07
Cooks' notes: The egg yolks in the dressing are not cooked. For a quicker, egg-safe dressing, use 2/3 cup mayonnaise in place of the yolks and oil. Vegetables and dressing can be prepared 3 hours ahead and chilled separately (vegetables in sealable bags lined with damp paper towels).
