#goldenapron3 Week#22 #citrus #sauce
Fruit curd is a dessert spread and topping usually made with citrus fruit, such as lemon, lime, orange or tangerine. Other flavor variations include passion fruit, mango, and berries such as raspberries, cranberries or blackberries. Wikipedia
Every year a cousin of mine, gifts me with these home-grown cuties and I love these kinds of lemon’s flavor especially in baking.
Today I will post how to make “Homemade Lemon curd”. Homemade lemon curd is quick and easy and so much more mouthwatering than the shop-bought variety. Made by cooking (by using double boiler method) a mixture of fresh lemon juice, grated outer skin/rind, sugar, butter, and eggs, lemon curd is enjoyed on buttered toast, and is a delicious filling for breads, tarts, cakes and cookies. In the coming posts, I will explain the usage of curds one by one.
Equipment needed: Wire whisk (egg beater) and nice, sharp grater with tiny holes, so that it will help to remove only the lemon’s outermost layer (coloured layer) inner white layer will be bitter, 2 vessels.
