Lemon Curd
Ingredients
- 6 eggs
- ¾ cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest (from 1 lemon)
- ¾ cup fresh lemon juice (about 4 lemons)
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter, cut into pieces
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, whisk eggs, sugar and zest to combine. Whisk in lemon juice; add butter.
- 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.
- Note: to make lime/orange/grapefruit curd, replace juice and zest in equal amounts to recipe.
