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

[email protected]The sauce was a bit too lemony for my taste. I think I'll try adding less lemon juice next time.

[email protected]I'm allergic to eggs, so I substituted the Maltaise sauce with a hollandaise sauce made with vegan butter. It turned out great!

[email protected]This recipe is a great starting point, but I think it can be improved with a few tweaks. I added some lemon zest to the sauce for a brighter flavor, and I roasted the asparagus instead of boiling it for a smokier taste.

[email protected]I had some trouble getting the sauce to emulsify. It kept separating, no matter how much I whisked it. Any tips?

[email protected]This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. The Maltaise sauce was very heavy and overpowered the asparagus. I think I'll try a different sauce next time.
