Cooking Instructions
1. Prepare the Asparagus
Trim the ends off the asparagus and blanch in boiling salted water for 2-3 minutes until bright green. Drain and set aside.
2. Cook the Crab
In a large pot, steam the Alaskan King Crab legs for about 5-7 minutes until heated through. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before cracking open.
3. Make the Béarnaise Sauce
In a small saucepan, combine the white wine vinegar, minced shallots, and half of the chopped tarragon. Simmer until reduced by half. Strain and set aside to cool slightly. In a heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and reduced vinegar mixture. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler) and whisk until thickened. Gradually whisk in the melted butter until fully combined. Stir in the remaining tarragon, salt, and black pepper.
4. Serve
On a large platter, arrange the steamed crab legs and blanched asparagus. Drizzle with the béarnaise sauce and serve immediately.
