When life gives you lemons, you don't go make lemonade, you make lemon curd. I can eat a jar of lemon curd by itself, without any toast or scone. Please tell me I am not the only one. So here is my go-to Lemon Curd recipe.
Ingredients
5 egg yolks
80 gr sugar
100 ml lemon juice
1 tbsp lemon zest
55 gr unsalted butter, cold and cubed
Instructions
1. In a medium-sized saucepan, whisk all ingredients for 2 minutes until everything is combined. Take to pan to medium-low heat, and constantly whisk until the curd thickens, should be around 3-4 minutes. Strain the curd through a fine-mesh sieve and transform it into a glass container with a lid. Cover the top of the curd with cling film, making sure that cling film touches all the surface area of the curd. Close the lid and let it set in the fridge for 2 hours. Enjoy!
