Lemon Curd

Lemon Curd

Ingredients
  1. 6 eggs
  2. ¾ cup sugar
  3. 1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest (from 1 lemon)
  4. ¾ cup fresh lemon juice (about 4 lemons)
  5. 8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter, cut into pieces
Instructions
  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk eggs, sugar and zest to combine. Whisk in lemon juice; add butter.
  2. Cook lemon mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened, 7-9 mins. Immediately pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Press plastic wrap directly on surface of curd and refrigerate until cool, at least 2 hours and up to 10 days.
  3. Note: to make lime/orange/grapefruit curd, replace juice and zest in equal amounts to recipe.
