Patty Saveurs

Recipe :

Into a double boiler with simmering water, add eggs, sugar and lemon juice (filtered) and whisk until homogenized

Continue whisking lightly and constantly until the preparation thickens, almost like mayonnaise, in the beginning a lot of foam will form, when the lemon curd is ready, all that foam will be absorbed, be patient as it takes about 10 minutes 

Remove from heat and strain into another bowl to remove any lumps of cooked egg,

Add butter and stir until it is completely melted

Add lemon zest and stir to incorporate

Cover with a piece of plastic wrap directly on the cream and let cool

Once cooled, if you don’t use it immediately, store lemon curd into a lidded jar

The lemon curd will continue to thicken once refrigerated
