Asparagus sauce Fleurette (easier then hollandaise)

Join my online French cooking classes : https://learn.thefrenchcookingacademy.com/p/get-started-with-french-cooking In this video tutorial we learn how to make Asparagus sauce Fleurette (asparagus with a sauce Fleurette). This is one of the many derivative sauces based on a the mother sauce Hollandaise with the addition of cream to provide a silkier texture. In contrast to the Hollandaise, this is a one pot sauce! In my opinion, not only is it easier to make, but it tastes better too.

The name Fleurette comes from the type of French cream is used. Creme Fleurette is a full fat cream widely used in France.
