Asparagus with Dijon Sauce image

I just love, love, LOVE asparagus! This is a great recipe with a bit of a "gourmet" touch in the making of the sauce. It adds a world of flavor to the already awesome green crispy vegetable.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my asparagus was a little too crunchy. I think I'll cook it for a few minutes longer next time.
