I like lemon better than key lime but the latter has its place, too. When you're feeling very tropical....<br /><br />Meyer Lemon Curd<br />(also, Key Lime Curd, just replace with the correct citrus) - makes 16 oz. of curd<br /><br />1/2 c. Meyer lemon juice<br />zest from the lemons that produced the juice<br />3/4 c. organic sugar<br />2 large eggs<br />1 stick unsalted butter, cut into 6 pieces - use real butter<br /><br />Whisk juice, zest, sugar and eggs in double boiler until smooth. Add butter, and continue whisking over the simmering water about 10 minutes until opaque and thicker but still liquidy enough to pour. While it’s still hot, carefully pour the lemon curd through a fine strainer. I use the large mesh strainer set upon the canning funnel and balance it all on the edge of the pot since I'm not Krishna and just don't have enough arms. Process in boiling water canner for 15 minutes.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06997895540586043266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7198714796928095356.post-14515640808934077812010-07-22T17:15:47.527-04:002010-07-22T17:15:47.527-04:00When I saw this the other day I wanted to ask abou...When I saw this the other day I wanted to ask about it, but I couldn't comment from Firefox and was too unorganized to switch to IE. <br /><br />So, do you have a recipe or anything to share here? I've never had lemon curd. The name skeeves me out a bit, but I've always been drawn to try it.Meadowlarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17208672418814503032noreply@blogger.com
