Steps:
- For the mousseline sauce: Place the egg yolks and citrus juices in a bowl over simmering water or in a double boiler. Cook, whisking, until thick and frothy with a ribbonlike texture, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter to emulsify. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- For the leeks: Thinly slice the leeks into matchsticks. Add the butter to a large skillet over medium heat, and cook until brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the leeks and saute until translucent and soft, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- For the asparagus: Bring a medium saucepan filled with cold water to a simmer, then add the salt. Cut the tough ends from the bottoms of the asparagus and peel the stalks. Blanch the asparagus in the simmering water for 3 to 4 minutes. Meanwhile, add ice to a medium mixing bowl filled with cold water. Add the blanched asparagus to the ice water to stop the cooking. Once the asparagus have chilled, remove from the ice water and pat dry.
- Arrange the leeks on a serving platter. Lay the asparagus on top. Glaze the asparagus with the mousseline sauce. Serve with the remaining sauce on the side.

Steps:
- Snap off and discard the tough bottoms of each asparagus spear. If using large thick asparagus, peel the lower ends with a vegetable peeler. Medium asparagus will not need peeling.
- Bring a medium saucepan half filled with water to a boil, carefully add the eggs and simmer briskly for 9 minutes (10 minutes for a slightly firmer yolk). Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool. Shell the eggs and set aside.
- Make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, place the shallots, vinegar and a pinch of salt. Let shallots soften for 5 minutes. Stir in the mustard to dissolve, then whisk in the olive oil to make a thick dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- In a large stainless-steel soup pot bring 4 quarts of well-salted water to a rolling boil. Add the asparagus and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until just done. Remove asparagus with a large strainer and spread out on a baking sheet lined with a clean kitchen towel. Asparagus may be served warm or at room temperature.
- To serve, place asparagus on a platter or individual plates. Spoon the vinaigrette over the asparagus. Garnish with quartered eggs (or roughly chop the eggs if you prefer). Sprinkle with chives.

This is a recipes from a small book of great recipes called "Salads and Summer Dishes". I borrowed it and have made many of the recipes so far,with excellent results so this one is on the "to do" list. Maltaise sauce is a variation on the traditional Hollandaise sauce, but orange juice is added for a slightly different take, in flavour and colour to an old classic. Posted for ZWT REGION: France.

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.

Steps:
- Zest and juice 1 1/2 lemons. Cut remaining lemon half into wedges and set aside.
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of cooking water.
- While penne is cooking, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a pot over medium heat and cook asparagus until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and remove from pot.
- Add remaining 3 tablespoons butter and heat until a pinch of flour sprinkled into the pot will just begin to bubble. Whisk in flour to form a thick paste the consistency of cake frosting. Continue cooking, whisking constantly, for about 5 minutes. Whisk in cream and vegetable broth and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 1 to 2 minutes.
- Stir lemon juice, lemon zest, and parsley into the sauce; season with salt, pepper, and sugar. Add asparagus and heat through, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and penne to the sauce and pour in some of the reserved cooking water. Serve with shaved Parmesan and lemon wedges.

Tips:
- To select the best asparagus, look for spears that are firm and have tight tips. Avoid spears that are limp or have woody ends.
- Asparagus can be cooked in a variety of ways, including boiling, steaming, roasting, and grilling. Boiling is the quickest method, but it can also lead to the loss of nutrients. Steaming is a healthier option that preserves more nutrients.
- When cooking asparagus, it is important to not overcook it. Overcooked asparagus will become mushy and lose its flavor. Asparagus should be cooked until it is tender-crisp, which takes about 3-5 minutes.
- Orange mustard sauce is a classic accompaniment to asparagus. The tangy, creamy sauce complements the sweetness of the asparagus. To make orange mustard sauce, simply whisk together orange juice, Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, sour cream, and salt and pepper. Season with fresh herbs, such as dill or chives, if desired.
- Sauce mousseline is a light, fluffy sauce that is made with egg yolks, butter, and cream. It is a delicious accompaniment to asparagus, seafood, and poultry. To make sauce mousseline, whisk together egg yolks, lemon juice, and salt and pepper in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water. Cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture has thickened and coats the back of a spoon. Remove from the heat and whisk in cold butter, one piece at a time. Once all the butter has been incorporated, slowly whisk in the cream.
Conclusion:
Asparagus is a delicious and versatile vegetable that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. Whether you are boiling, steaming, roasting, or grilling asparagus, be sure to not overcook it. Asparagus should be cooked until it is tender-crisp, which takes about 3-5 minutes. Orange mustard sauce and sauce mousseline are both delicious accompaniments to asparagus. Orange mustard sauce is a classic sauce that is made with orange juice, Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, sour cream, and salt and pepper. Sauce mousseline is a light, fluffy sauce that is made with egg yolks, butter, and cream. Both sauces are easy to make and can be used to elevate the flavor of asparagus.
