Preparation Steps

    Prepare the Tarragon Aioli

    In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped tarragon, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

    Make the Tarragon Oil

    In a small saucepan, heat the olive oil over low heat. Add the tarragon leaves and let infuse for about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Blanch the asparagus in boiling water for 2-3 minutes until tender-crisp. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop cooking. Dice the cucumber and avocado.

    Assemble the Dish

    On a plate, layer the crab meat, followed by diced cucumber, avocado, and blanched asparagus. Drizzle with tarragon oil and serve with tarragon aioli and a sprinkle of masago on top.
