Simply Recipes / Elise Bauer
Bend the asparagus spears near the end and they will break naturally where the spear is no longer tough.
Melt the butter in a small pot.
Put the egg yolks, lemon juice, salt and cayenne into a blender.
Simply Recipes / Elise Bauer
Blend the eggs for 20 to 30 seconds at medium to medium-high speed until lighter in color.
Continue to blend for a few seconds after all of the butter is incorporated.
Taste the sauce and add more salt or lemon juice if needed.

Keep warm while you are steaming the asparagus.

Bring the water in your steaming pan to a boil.
Place the asparagus on the steaming rack.

Steam for 3 to 5 minutes, until tender, but still a little crisp, definitely not mushy.
The timing depends on how thick the asparagus spears are.
To serve, plate the asparagus.
