ASPARAGUS WITH MALTAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. While the asparagus is steaming, make the sauce. In a medium saucepan, combine egg yolks and whisk vigorously until they get thick, about 1 minute. While whisking, add lemon and orange juice with the zest.
• 2. Move saucepan over medium heat and keep moving it off the heat, whisking constantly. The trick here is to not shock the yolks and gradually heat them up.
• 3. When the sauce gets thick, move the saucepan away from the heat and start adding the melted butter by pouring a few drops at first (don't shock the yolks), whisking continuously. Gradually add more until the sauce is nice and smooth (never stop whisking).
• 4. Spoon over steamed asparagus, if not needed yet, move to the back burner, keeping warm on very low temperature. Makes 1 ¼ cups

ASPARAGUS IN CREAMY ORANGE MALTAISE BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Wash the asparagus and snap off the ends to remove the tough part of the stalks. Tie the asparagus into bundles of 6-7 stalks and boil them for 10-15 minutes standing upright in a pan of hot water. Drain well.
• To make the sauce, in a small metal bowl or pot beat the butter, egg yolks, salt, pepper and orange rind together. Place over a larger pan of hot water and whisk in the orange and lemon juice cooking over a gentle heat while adding the butter a LITTLE at a time, so that it thickens, don't rush this, becuase if the previous amount of butter has not emulsified before the next lot is added, the sauce will split.
• Once it begins to thicken, remove from the heat and continue beating for a full minute, then stir in the cream.
• Mix together well, the orange juice should have turned the sauce a soft shade of pink. Pour the sauce into a sauce boat and serve with the bundles of asparagus immediately.
• Decorate the asparagus bundles with orange twists.
