How to make it
- Break off the tough woody ends from the asparagus, steam the Asparagus until tender.
- Place the egg yolks in a small bowl over a pan of simmering water.
- Whisk together until slightly thickened taking care that the bowl does not become too hot or the sauce will curdle.

- When all the butter has been added the sauce should be thick and smooth.
