Tips from the chef:
Lemon lovers, this is your topping.
Lemon curd is a very rich dessert topping or spread. It’s buttery and sweet with intense tart lemon flavour like a creamy lemon version of jam.
You need 5 ingredients for lemon curd recipe: egg yolks, fresh lemons, sugar, salt, and butter.
Each ingredient serves a critical purpose for thickening and flavouring. The egg yolks thicken the curd, just as they do in creme brûlée or butterscotch pudding.
Use real lemons; you need both the zest and juice. The sugar supplies sweetness and structure, while the salt balances out the flavor. Add the butter after the curd finishes on the stove. Butter makes it super creamy.
Make lemon curd on the stove. Make sure you are constantly whisking as the mixture thickens, we’re talking about 10 minutes of whisking. The good news? That’s the only step in this recipe: whisking!
Fill the bottom pot of your double boiler with 1-2 inches of water. Place on high heat. Once the water begins to boil, reduce to low heat to keep the water at a simmer.
Place 4 egg yolks, 135gr. of granulated sugar, a pich of lemon zest, 80ml. of lemon juice, and a pich of salt into the top pot of your double boiler. Using a whisk, whisk until completely blended, then continue to whisk as the curd cooks. Constant whisking prevents the egg yolks from curdling. Whisk and cook until the mixture becomes thick, about 10 minutes. If curd isn’t thickening, turn up the heat and constantly whisk.
Remove pan from heat. Cut 85gr. of unsalted butter into 6 separate pieces, then whisk into the curd. The butter will melt from the heat of the curd. Pour curd into a jar or bowl and place a piece of plastic wrap directly on top so it is touching the top of the curd. (This prevents a skin from forming on top.) The curd will continue to thicken as it cools.
Once cool, the plastic wrap can be removed and your lemon topping is ready.
