Hollandaise Sauce for Asparagus

I wanted to serve white asparagus with a delicious sauce, so I consulted German recipe sites and cookbooks to create this recipe.
Recipes that are a few years old call for cracked black pepper, but more recent versions tend to call for white pepper.
For Step 2, I put the bowl over a boiling pot of potatoes. Do not use a double boiler as the heat will be too hot. Recipe by Popotankobu

For 4 eggs benedict or 2 english muffins' worth. Recipe by hirokoh cookpad.japan -

Authentic ! Artichokes with Hollandaise Sauce Authentic ! Artichokes with Hollandaise Sauce
My mother-in-law made this artichoke dish for me before her son and I got married. I heard that my husband really liked artichokes, so I wanted to learn how to cook them. I was happy that I was able to make the sauce on my first try, because it's difficult -- even my mother-in-law has messed it up a few times.It's important to keep stirring the sauce while cooking it over very low heat. Raising the temperature or not stirring it constantly will result in separation or clumps. Stirring with a whisk works great. Steam the artichoke until a bamboo skewer pierces easily through the bottom. Recipe by KumiBerry cookpad.japan -
