Instructions:

For the asparagus salad, blanch the spring leeks in salted water and rinse in ice water.

Peel the white and green asparagus (peel only 2/3 of the asparagus, as the thin upper skin is good to eat) and cook in a vegetable steamer.

Lastly, sprinkle coarsely cracked pepper and sea salt on top.

For the hollandaise sauce, first mix the egg yolks with the white wine and the celery stock in a bowl and then whisk in a bain-marie until foamy.

Remove from the water bath and stir in the cold butter.

Season with salt and cayenne pepper.

It is important to note: the egg yolks must be whipped with the white wine celery stock until particularly fluffy.

Garnish the finished asparagus with the sauce and the spring leeks and serve.
