Preparation steps
For the Hollandaise: Melt butter in a pot and use spoon to skim off foam. Add egg yolks, lemon juice and lemon zest to a metal bowl and lightly beat over a hot water bath until creamy. Remove from heat. Add butter to lemon-yolk mixture, first drop by drop then in a thin stream and continuously stir slowly with whisk until Hollandaise sauce is creamy and shiny. Season with sugar, salt and pepper.
For the asparagus: Remove bottom third of asparagus stalks, peel and cut off ends. Halve asparagus stalks diagonally and boil in salted water for 8-10 minutes. Remove asparagus from pot and rinse in cold water. Drizzle asparagus halves with sesame oil and roll in sesame seeds.
Pour Hollandaise sauce in glasses, top with asparagus and serve garnished with cress.
