Asparagus With Hollandaise Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Trim the woody ends from the asparagus. Spread the spears in a single layer in a shallow roasting pan baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and roll to coat thoroughly. Roast the asparagus until lightly browned and tender, about 10 minutes, giving the pan a good shake about halfway through.
• Meanwhile, put the egg yolk, lemon juice, and cayenne in a blender. Pulse a couple times to combine.
• Put the butter in a small microwave proof bowl and heat in a microwave until just melted. With the blender running, gradually add the melted butter into the egg to make a smooth frothy sauce. If the sauce is really thick blend in a teaspoon of lukewarm water to loosen it up. Season with the salt and serve immediately or keep warm in a small heat-proof bowl set over hot (but not simmering) water until ready to serve.
• Spread the roasted asparagus on a serving platter. Grind a generous amount of pepper over the top.

Steps:

• Hold both ends of a stalk of asparagus and bend it until it snaps. Then use a knife to trim the remainder of the bunch to match. Discard the trimmed stems.
• Bring a pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add the asparagus and cook, uncovered, until tender, 4 to 6 minutes depending on the thickness. Drain in a colander.
• Meanwhile, put the egg yolk, lemon juice and cayenne in a blender. Pulse a couple times to combine.
• Put the butter in a small microwave proof bowl and heat in a microwave until just melted. With the blender running, gradually add the melted butter into the egg to make a smooth frothy sauce. If the sauce is really thick blend in a teaspoon of lukewarm water to loosen it up.
• Transfer the asparagus to a plate. Pour the sauce over the top of the asparagus, sprinkle with more cayenne if desired and serve right away.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Melt the butter in a small sauce pan. Place the egg yolks, lemon juice, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 3/4 teaspoon pepper and cayenne in the jar of a blender. Blend for 15 seconds. With the blender running, slowly pour the hot butter into the blender and blend for 30 seconds, until the sauce is thick. (You can leave it in the blender at room temperature for up to 1 hour. If it is made in advance, add 1 tablespoon hot tap water and blend for a few seconds before serving.)
• Break off the tough ends of the asparagus and, if they're thick, peel them. Place the asparagus on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, then toss to coat the asparagus completely. Spread the asparagus in a single layer and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast the asparagus for 15 to 20 minutes, until tender but still crisp.
• Pour the hollandaise sauce over the warm asparagus and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• For the asparagus: Toss the asparagus with the olive oil on a rimmed baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Roast until slightly tender to the bite, about 10 minutes.
• For the hollandaise: Meanwhile, add the egg yolks, lemon juice, salt and cayenne to a small food processor or blender and blend on low. Slowly add the melted butter in a steady stream, blending until thickened. Serve over the roasted asparagus.

Steps:

• Hold both ends of a stalk of asparagus and bend it until it snaps. Then use a knife to trim the remainder of the bunch to match. Discard the trimmed stems.
• Bring a pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add the asparagus and cook, uncovered, until tender, 4 to 6 minutes depending on the thickness. Drain in a colander.

Steps:

• Put the butter inside a heatproof bowl or glass measuring cup and set it in a basin of simmering water. Let it heat until the butter is melted.
• Carefully spoon off the white residue on top of the clear yellow liquid in the center. Carefully pour off and reserve the yellow liquid. Discard the milky bottom portion.
• Combine the egg yolks and water, beating rapidly with a wire whisk. Place the saucepan in a larger basin of simmering water, beating constantly. Gradually add the clear yellow liquid, beating constantly while heating the mixture in the simmering water. Do not overheat. Beat and heat until the sauce has the consistency of a thin mayonnaise.
• Add the salt, cayenne pepper and lemon juice and blend thoroughly.

Steps:

• Warm the olive oil or butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the peeled and trimmed asparagus, lemon zest, and salt & pepper; stir to combine.
• Cover and cook until tender-crisp, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Do not over cook.
• Arrange on serving platter and squeeze with fresh lemon juice.
• Prepare the Hollandaise Sauce: Cut the butter into four pieces and place in a 1-quart glass measure or bowl. Microwave, covered with a paper towel, on high, until almost melted (about 45 seconds to 1 minute).
• Remove butter from the microwave and stir until completely melted.
• Separate eggs, placing the yolks in a small bowl and setting the whites aside for another purpose. Beat the yolks well with a whisk or fork, then add to the butter and stir well.
• Add cream, lemon juice, and sugar to egg mixture and stir well. Microwave mixture, uncovered, on high, until just slightly thick, about 1 to 2 minutes, stopping every 20 seconds to stir with a fork. Remove sauce from microwave and stir in the mustard.
• Pour warm sauce over the cooked white asparagus and serve at once. Garnish with fresh snipped parsley or fresh small edible flowers such as violets or Johnny jump-ups, if desired.
• NOTE: Sauce may be kept warm for up to 2 hours in an insulated container. Or cool the sauce to room temperature and refrigerate it in a covered microwave safe container for up to 24 hours. To re-warm, cover container with plastic wrap, pierce wrap with a knife to vent, and microwave on 50 percent power until heated through, about 2-3 minutes, stopping to stir halfway through. Do not allow sauce to boil.

Steps:

• Trim the base of the asparagus spears and, using a vegetable peeler, lightly peel away the skin from the bottom half of each spear. Place the asparagus in a large pan of lightly salted boiling water and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until just tender. Drain thoroughly.
• While the asparagus is cooking, place all the sauce ingredients in a blender and process until smooth. Season well.
• To serve, divide the asparagus between warmed plates and spoon the sauce over the top.

Steps:

• ---------Spears-----------.
• To cook asparagus spears, heat 1 inch salted water to boiling in deep narrow pan or coffee pot.
• Place upright in pan and boil for approximately 5 minutes.
• Cover and cook 7-10 minutes longer or until stalks are crisp-tender.
• Drain.
• --------Pieces-------.
• For cooking pieces of asparagus, cook lower stalk cuts in 1 inch of boiling salted water for approximately 5 minutes.
• Add tips, cover and cook 5-7 minutes or until crisp-tender.
• Drain.
• ----------HollandaiseSauce---------.
• To make the hollandaise sauce: Using a wooden spoon, stir 2 slightly beaten egg yokes and 3 tablespoons lemon juice in a one quart saucepan.
• Stir vigorously.
• Add the butter or margarine and heat over very low heat, stirring constantly until butter is melted and sauce begins to thicken.
• Pour Hollandaise Sauce over top of cooked Asparagus and garnish with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Bring the water to a boil in a large stockpot, and add the salt. Place asparagus spears in the water; cook just until tender, about 5 minutes. Gently transfer to a colander to drain, being careful not to damage the tips. Blot dry with paper towels, and arrange on a large serving platter. Serve warm with hollandaise sauce.

Steps:

• Bring large pot of salted water to boil and choose a stainless steel mixing bowl that will sit on top of the pot without touching the water.
• Cut off the bottom of asparagus spears where they turn light colored and tough. If asparagus is thick (which is how I prefer it), peel bottom 2/3 of each spear with a sharp vegetable peeler.
• Whisk egg yolks in mixing bowl with lemon juice, water, salt and a few grindings of black pepper and set aside.
• Boil asparagus until it's tender but still has some snap, 4 to 6 minutes. Test it by holding a spear by the bottom with tongs held horizontally; it should be limp and bend like a bow toward the floor.
• When it's cooked, use tongs to remove asparagus from water and arrange on warm platter.
• Put bowl of sauce ingredients on top of rapidly boiling water and whisk vigorously until it is very thick and foamy. This will take only 2 to 3 minutes and you will easily be able to sense the point when the sauce becomes custardy and fully cooked.
• Whisk in butter and, when it's incorporated, add tarragon.
• Pour sauce over asparagus, or pass it separately in a serving bowl, and serve right away.

Steps:

• Cook asparagus in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, about 3-6 minutes.
• Transfer with tongs to a colander.
• While asparagus is cooking, bring a 3 quart saucepan one-third full of water to a boil.
• Whisk together yolks, water, and lemon juice in a small (1-quart) saucepan.
• Place saucepan in a larger pot of boiling water, and whisk egg yolks until they begin to thicken.
• Immediately remove yolks from heat and whisk in half of butter.
• Return saucepan to boiling water and whisk (the sauce will become creamy).
• Remove from heat and whisk in remaining butter.
• Return pan to boiling water, whisking until sauce is thickened slightly.
• Remove from heat and whisk 15 seconds more.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Serve sauce over asparagus.
• Cook's note: Yolks in this recipe may not be cooked fully.

Steps:

• Whisk sauce mix and milk together in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add butter. Bring to a boil, stirring until melted and smooth. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thick, about 1 minute. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook asparagus for 3 minutes. Drain and run under cold water to stop the cooking process. Transfer to a cutting board and pat dry with paper towels.
• Wrap a slice of ham around 4 asparagus spears and place on a serving tray. Repeat with remaining asparagus and ham. Drizzle hollandaise sauce over the asparagus bundles and garnish with dill.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat; let cool about 5 minutes. Put egg yolks in a blender. With motor running, gradually add butter. Add lemon juice and cayenne; season with salt and pepper. (Sauce should be thick but fluid enough to drizzle from a spoon, and should form a pool, not a mound. If too thick, thin with warm water.) Season to taste with lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Sauce is best used immediately, but can be stored in a thermos about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring 1 inch salted water to a boil in a large straight-sided skillet. Add asparagus, in batches if needed to avoid crowding. Cook until crisp-tender, 3 to 4 minutes; drain. Serve warm or room temperature, with sauce.

Steps:

• Clarify the butter: Slowly melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat; skim off surface foam. Pour clear layer of butter into a large glass measuring cup, leaving behind the milky residue in the bottom of the pan, which can be discarded. Let butter cool until it is lukewarm.
• Meanwhile, place egg yolks and wine in a heat-proof bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Whisk vigorously until mixture is very pale and whisk leaves a trail, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove bowl from heat; continue whisking until mixture is lukewarm, about 30 seconds.
• Whisking constantly, add butter to the egg mixture a drop at a time at first and gradually increasing to a steady stream. When fully incorporated, stir in the water and lemon juice, and season with salt and cayenne pepper, if desired. Serve immediately, or keep warm over a pan of simmering water removed from heat.
