I made Hollandaise Sauce for the first time tonight.

Successful: 1) It tasted good, and 2) it didn't turn into scrambled eggs. Just enough salt.

On asparagus.

I used to make it often, but I've lost the utensils and recipe. (YEARS ago!)

I made it for the first time two weeks ago. I will never buy the little package again.

I like to use a double boiler setup with just a SS bowl sitting on a deep pan with just a small amount of boiling water. Then I whisk 4 large egg yolks with some melted butter that’s just warm enough to stay liquid. Then season at the end with some kind of acidic liquid, salt, cayenne.
