Chipotle sauce

From me ;-)

INGREDIENTS

2 Tbsp olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped, about 1 cup
3 garlic cloves, minced
1-3 chipotles chiles in adobo (canned), minced fine and sauce reserved
1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes (preferably fire-roasted)
1/2 cup beef or chicken broth

DIRECTIONS

Heat the olive oil in a sauté pan over medium-high heat and sauté the onions until they just start to brown. 

Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, then add the minced chipotles, the can of tomatoes and beef broth. 

Mix well and add salt to taste. 

If you want more chipotle flavor, add the reserved chipotle sauce spoonful by spoonful, mixing and tasting between spoonfuls.

(I like all this blended, but works perfect as is)

Asparagus with Hollandaise Sauce

From EATZ with my tweaks in ( ) because of availability in my kitchen

INGREDIENTS for the sauce

 1 small shallot (1/4 yellow onion)
4 whole black peppercorns
3 fluid ounces white wine
1 fluid ounce white wine vinegar (Apple cider vinegar)
3 egg yolks
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
8-12 ounces clarified butter
Cayenne pepper as needed (white pepper + paprika)
salt s needed

DIRECTIONS for the sauce

In a small saucepan, combine the shallots, peppercorns, wine and vinegar. Reduce over low heat to about 1 tablespoon. Strain the reduction.
In a stainless steal bowl, add the egg yolks and shallot reduction. Using a whisk, whip the mixture until "ribbon stage" (it will look pa;e yellow and slightly thick). Whisk over a "bain-marie" until the mixture has just thickened. Do not scramble the eggs, control heat by removing and returning bowl from "bain-marie". Slowly drizzle in the lukewarm clarified butter 1 ounce at a time. When consistency has reached a velvety smooth texture, add lemon juice. Season with a bit of cayenne pepper and salt and serve immediately, sauce keeps thickening and does not look as nice ;-)

DIRECTIONS for the asparagus

Put asparagus in boiling water for about 12-16 min depending on size and thickness and transfer to iced water for a minute or so. Drain water and serve.
