In this variation on eggs Benedict, we embellish the classic hollandaise sauce with fines herbes, a French blend that includes chives, tarragon, parsley and chervil. The recipe calls for asparagus instead of the traditional Canadian bacon, and baguette slices replace the English muffins.

This pairs well with soft, medium-bodied white wines like the Diemersdal MM Louw Sauvignon Blanc, Durbanville from our Wine Club.Directions:
Assemble a double boiler according to the manufacturer¿s instructions and heat. In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, lemon juice and water. Transfer to the double boiler and whisk constantly until the mixture begins to thicken, then whisk about 1 minute more. Remove from the heat when the mixture thickens. Season with salt, white pepper and cayenne.Using a handheld whisk, whisk the mixture while slowly pouring in the melted butter in a thin stream until incorporated, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the fines herbes. Taste and adjust the seasonings with salt and white pepper. Keep the hollandaise sauce warm until ready to serve.
Place 2 baguette toasts on each of 4 plates. Top each toast with 1 poached egg and place the asparagus alongside. Spoon the hollandaise sauce on top. Serve immediately. Serves 4.
