White asparagus and spicy hollandaise with Västerbottensost cheese®

Peel the asparagus with a potato peeler, start right under the bud and cut off the woody part at the bottom.
Melt the butter over medium heat.
Set aside so that the butter splits and the cloudy settles on the bottom.
Mix egg yolks and wine in a bowl or stainless steel bowl and place over a water bath with lightly simmering water.
Whisk the mixture until it thickens. Take the bowl from the water bath and add the butter while whipping, starting dropwise, and then in a thin stream.
Do not include the cloudy lees.
Stir in Västerbottensost®, lemon juice, chili flakes and herbs.
Simmer the asparagus in lightly salted water for about 5 minutes.
Serve immediately with the spicy hollandaise sauce.
