Thoroughly brush the salsify under running water. Peel, cut into pieces, and place in vinegar or lemon water to prevent browning. Boil the salsify in a little salted water for about 15 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Whisk the mustard with the cream, egg yolk, and apple juice in a hot water bath until thick and foamy. Remove from the heat and stir in the grated cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Layer the drained vegetables in an ovenproof dish. Spoon the sauce over the vegetables and bake for 10 minutes.
