• Sprinkle a touch of sea salt over top of tomatoes and asparagus and bake for approximately another 10 minutes. Make sure to check your asparagus and mushrooms to desired tenderness.
• For the sauce:
• Pour the milk into a medium sized saucepan.
• Make an 'ornament' with the onion, bay leaf and clove by using the clove to pierce the bay leaf and then poke the bay leaf into the onion; add your 'ornament' to the milk in the saucepan.
• Warm the milk gently over low heat, to infuse the flavors, until it just begins to boil; cover and let rest for about 15 minutes or so while you follow the next step.
• In another medium saucepan melt the butter over low heat; mix in the flour and cook for a couple of minutes stirring constantly.
• Add the milk to the butter/flour mixture 1/2 cup at a time; cook and stir until all the milk has been added.
• For a stronger flavor in your sauce you can add the onion from the milk mixture at this point.
• Cook over low heat until thick, about 20-25 minutes; stirring occasionally so it doesn't burn on the bottom.
• Once the sauce has thickened remove the onion, and add salt and pepper to taste; leaving the sauce over very low heat.
• Stir in the cream (if using) to give a silky texture to the sauce. You don't have to use it all depending on the thickness of your sauce; keeping in mind the cheese will also thicken the sauce further.
• Add the mustard and cheese to the sauce until the cheese is melted; BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO LET BOIL!. The cheese will separate and it will not look appealing.
• Drizzle the Cheese Sauce over top of the baked vegetables and serve.
