Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 1 cup sugar (granulated)
  • 1/2 cup butter (unsalted, at room temperature)
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup lemon zest
  • 3/4 cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed, about 4 large lemons)
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Instruction

  • In a small saucepan (2 qt), add all the ingredients together and whisk.
  • Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly until the mixture is thick enough to hold marks from the whisk. Continue cooking for about 5 minutes or until the mixture begins to bubble.
  • Remove from heat and set aside to cool, stirring occasionally as it cools. Once cooked, spoon the lemon curd into sterilized jars and seal.
  • Refrigerate until ready to use.
