Ingredients
The following ingredients have 2 Servings
- 8 tablespoons butter (unsalted)
- ¾ cups granulated sugar
- ¾ cups lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 3 large eggs
Instruction
- Add the butter to your saucepan. Allow it to melt 75% of the way before adding the sugar. Start whisking to combine the two into a thick substance.
- Then, add the lemon juice, and zest stirring continuously. Add each egg and whisk until fluffy, and then keep on whisking for the next 10 or so minutes. Do not increase the heat! You will notice the curd start to thicken until it reaches a spoon-able consistency.
- Once it is thickened, remove the pan from the heat and allow the curd to sit for 10 minutes before transferring it into a heat-safe bowl. Cover the curd with plastic wrap (so it touches the curd) and place it in the refrigerator for about 2 hours. Once fully cooled, remove the plastic wrap and transfer the curd into lidded jars for storage.
