Instructions: Melt the butter in a pot, add the cucumbers and onion, and cook over low heat for 10 minutes, stirring often. Stir in the flour and cook for 3 minutes. Slowly add the stock and milk and bring to the boiling point.

Remove from heat and put through a strainer or vegetable mill or puree in a food processor or blender. Return to the pot, add the cream, egg yolks, and salt, and reheat, stirring, taking care not to boil.
