HONEY SWEETENED MEYER LEMON CURD


  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: about 16 oz 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 eggs (we prefer pasture raised for deep orange yolks)
  • 3/4 cup meyer lemon juice (3-4 lemons worth, depending on the size of your lemons)
  • zest from the juiced lemons
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 6 tbsp butter, cut into small pieces

Instructions

  1. Add the eggs & honey to a medium saucepan and whisk until well combined
  2. Add the meyer lemon juice & zest and whisk to combine
  3. Heat mixture over medium heat, whisking constantly for about 8-10 minutes, ensuring the mixture does not boil (adjusting heat if necessary)
  4. The curd is done when it has thickened enough that it will coat the back of a spoon – once it has reached this point add the butter and stir until melted.
  5. Position a fine mesh sieve over a glass or stainless steel bowl and pour the curd through it, using a spoon or spatula to coax it all through the mesh
  6. Transfer the strained curd into glass jars and allow to cool completely before storing in the refrigerator
  7. *for long term storage, store in the freezer
