Steps to make Lemon Curd:

  3. Carefully remove it from the oven and set it aside.
  4. Pour hot water over the lemons in a large bowl, add the vinegar and let stand for 30 seconds. This is to remove any wax or detritus from the lemon skin, and releases more juice from the lemons.
  5. Dry the lemons, then zest them and then juice them (you will use both)
  6. In a medium saucepan, whisk the eggs and sugar lightly.
  7. Put the pan on a medium low heat, and add the juice and zest, followed by the butter and salt

Perfect on toast, scones, hot buttered crumpets or rippled through ice cream. 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. I haven't made Lemon Curd yet, but I'm puzzled by comments about the cooked eggs. To keep the eggs from cooking, just mix the butter and sugar together, creaming them just as you would when.
