  8. Peel and grate the ginger.
  9. Boil 5 cl (1/5 cup) of water in a saucepan, add the ginger, and let infuse for 5 minutes.
  10. Remove from the heat and add the juice from a lemon.
  11. Add a few pieces of butter to the sauce and let them melt before mixing. Season as needed.
  12. Cook the snow peas and fava beans in a saucepan of boiling water, then plunge them in ice water.
  13. Coat the vegetables with the lemon butter.
  14. Heat the milk, garlic, and cream mixture. Blend with a hand blender until fluffy.
