This Meyer Lemon Curd is easy to make and so so gorgeous! You can make it with any time of lemon but the Meyer’s add a special floral flavor.
4 eggs
200g butter
180g lemon juice
170g sugar
18g lemon zest
Add lemon juice, zest, egg and sugar to a pot and bring to 82C/180F (whisking continuously!)
Take off the heat and pass through a strainer.
Cover with plastic and allow to cool to between 40-50C/104-122F.
Add in butter a tablespoon at a time until all is incorporated.
Cover with plastic and chill until fully cold (preferably overnight).
Enjoy!
If you’d like a stiffer curd:
Bloom 1 sheet of gelatin in ice water.
Add it to the curd as soon as it’s up to temp and you’ve taken it off the heat.
Proceed as usual.
