Steps:
- In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Cook asparagus until al dente (about 5 minutes, for regular asparagus and 3 minutes for pencil asparagus, from the time the water returns to a boil).
- Remove asparagus from the pot and refresh in ice water to stop the cooking process. Chill until needed.
- Serve with both cold Orange Mustard Sauce and hot Sauce Mousseline.
- In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, reduce the orange juice until only 1/2 cup remains. Transfer to a bowl and let cool, over a bowl of ice. Stir in mustard, salt, and pepper.
- Add whipped cream and stir until well blended. Keep refrigerated until ready to use.
- Yield: 1 1/2 cups
- In a heat resistant mixing bowl, combine the egg yolks, water, lemon juice, pepper, and salt. Whip over hot, not boiling, water until thick and creamy. Slowly whisk in the butter, a few drops at a time, until the mixture begins to emulsify. In a slow stream, whisk in the remaining butter until it is completely incorporated. Correct seasoning, to taste. Fold in the whipped cream and keep warm until needed.
- Yield: 1 1/2 cups

[email protected]This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I ended up burning the asparagus and the sauces didn't turn out right. Maybe I'll try it again when I have more experience in the kitchen.
