Preparation
Cook Asparagus
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the asparagus and cook for 3-5 minutes until tender but still crisp. Drain and set aside.
Make Hollandaise Sauce
In a heatproof bowl, whisk together egg yolks, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler) and whisk continuously until the mixture thickens.
Add Butter
Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while whisking constantly until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Add salt and cayenne pepper to taste.
Serve
Arrange the cooked asparagus on a plate and drizzle with the hollandaise sauce. Serve immediately.
