Sastojci

8 ounces thin asparagus, trimmed and cut into 4-inch lengths

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted, plus 16 tablespoons unsalted butter

Pinch plus 1⁄4 teaspoon table salt, divided, plus salt for cooking eggs

4 English muffin, split and toasted

8 ounces smoked salmon

8 large egg plus 3 large yolks, divided

2 tablespoons lemon juice

Pinch cayenne pepper

2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar

Upute

Adjust oven rack 6 inches from broiler element and heat broiler. Toss asparagus, melted butter, and pinch salt together on rimmed baking sheet. Broil until asparagus is tender, about 5 minutes. Arrange muffins split side up on platter. Divide asparagus and salmon evenly among muffin halves.

Cook 16 tablespoons butter in 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until golden brown and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Transfer to bowl and refrigerate until butter registers 190 degrees, 3 to 5 minutes. Process egg yolks, lemon juice, cayenne, and ¼ teaspoon salt in blender until frothy, about 10 seconds. With blender running, slowly drizzle in hot butter until fully emulsified, about 2 minutes. Adjust consistency with hot water as needed and season with salt to taste. Cover to keep warm.

Fill now-empty skillet nearly to rim with water. Add vinegar and 1 teaspoon salt and bring to boil over high heat. Crack remaining 8 eggs into liquid measuring cup. Gently tip eggs into water, one at a time, leaving space between them. Off heat, cover skillet and poach eggs until whites are set but yolks are slightly runny, about 4 minutes. Using slotted spoon, remove eggs from skillet and arrange on prepared muffin halves. Spoon hollandaise over each egg. Serve.
