Use a steam pot to receive a tender and aromatic asparagus: fill half of the pot with water and add salt. Put asparagus in layers in the upper part of the pot, place lemon slices and herbs on top and season to taste with salt and pepper. Add little pieces of Alsan to the top. Cook for 20 minutes with closed pot lid over medium heat and serve directly from the pot.
