Asparagus and Hollandaise Sauce
Method
Preparation and Cooking

Prepare the Asparagus
Trim the tough ends off the asparagus spears and rinse them under cold water. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and blanch the asparagus for about 3-4 minutes until tender but still crisp. Drain and set aside.

Make the Hollandaise Sauce
In a heatproof bowl, whisk the egg yolks and lemon juice together until pale and slightly thickened. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler) and continue to whisk. Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while whisking constantly until the sauce is thick and creamy. Season with salt, cayenne pepper, and black pepper to taste.
