This is the lemon curd recipe for you if you love lots of true lemon flavor and don’t like your curd too sweet. It's easy to make (no double boiler required) and is perfect for filling for cakes, tarts, and donuts. Don’t need lemon curd right now? No worries! You can make your curd and freeze it until you need it.

PRINTABLE RECIPE ► https://sugargeekshow.com/recipe/lemo...

RECIPE ►
8 ounces (227 g) (1 cup) lemon juice, About 6 large fresh lemons
2 Tablespoons (zest 1) lemon zest
6 ounces (170 g) (1 cup) granulated sugar, add 2 more ounces if you like sweeter lemon curd
5 egg yolks
1/4 teaspoon (1/4 tsp) salt
1 Tablespoon (1 Tbsp) cornstarch
4 ounces (113 g) (1/2 cup) unsalted butter

PRO-TIPS ►
1. Test the thickness of your curd by dipping the back of a spoon into your lemon curd and drag your finger across it. If it holds the shape without dripping off too quickly, it's done!

2. If you intend to use this as a cake filling, make sure to cook your lemon curd to at least 175º F. If you don’t, you could end up with runny lemon curd.

3. If your mixture is lumpy, you can strain it to remove any large pieces of zest, seeds, or curdled eggs.

4. Meyer lemons are not the same as regular lemons. You'll want to use regular lemons for this recipe. You can also use bottled lemon juice if needed, but fresh is best.

5. I used to always make curd with a bain-marie, but now I just use a large, wide, shallow sauté pan and whisk continuously and it works great. If you’re nervous about it, you can use a double boiler (or bain-marie). Start by placing about an inch of water in the bottom of a saucepan and bring it to a simmer (gentle bubbles) and place a heatproof bowl over the top of the pan. It’s a way to heat very gently so the chances of burning it are lower. If you use a bain-marie, you’ll have to cook your curd for about 20 minutes to get it to 170º F.
