    1. 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.

    2. 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.

    3. 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.
