HONEY MEYER LEMON CURD
Honey Meyer Lemon Curd is like a burst of mid winter sunshine! This easy recipe is made with vibrant Meyer lemons and wildflower honey for a mellow flavor and cheering color.
Lemon lovers, I’ve got your back today. I’ve made lemon curd before, so many times, but I never get tired of it because I find that every recipe is a little bit different and makes me fall in love all over again with its satiny texture and zippy flavor. The latest lemon curd is alway the greatest, that’s just the way it is.
Ingredients
1/2 cup fresh Meyer lemon juice (115 grams) You can use the juice of regular lemons, too.
1 large egg
3 large egg yolks
2/3 cup honey (225 grams)
pinch of coarse salt
6 Tbsp unsalted butter, cut in pieces (85 grams)
Instructions
Put the lemon juice, egg and yolks, honey, and salt in a 2-3 quart heavy bottomed saucepan. Whisk to combine.
ingredients in saucepan to make lemon curd
Add the butter and begin heating on medium to medium high, whisking almost constantly.
As the butter melts, switch to a silicone spoonula and continue stirring, scraping the sides and bottom of the pan as the mixture begins to thicken. When it comes to a gentle bubble, stir for a few seconds more, then remove from the heat.
Push the curd through a strainer, pressing down with the back of your silicone spoonula to get as much through as possible. You’ll just be left with a few small lumps of cooked egg.
Chill until cold, and use within a week or so. The curd will thicken further as it chills.
Pour this mixture on top of the crust and cook in the oven for 15 minutes more.
Remove from the oven to cool for 10 minutes.
Sift a little extra powdered sweetener over the top and cut into 9 squares.
Serve.
