Zubereitung von Clear Lemon Jelly Filling
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup cornstarch, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually whisk in 1 cup water until smooth.
- Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a rolling boil. This will take about 5-7 minutes.
- Continue to boil for 1 minute, whisking constantly, to cook out the raw starch taste.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon lemon zest and 2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter. Whisk until the butter is melted and incorporated.
- Stir in 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice and a few drops of yellow food coloring (optional, for a deeper color).
- Pour the mixture into a shallow dish. Cover the surface with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming. Allow to cool completely before using. You can speed up the cooling process by placing the dish in an ice bath.
- If the filling is too soft after cooling, refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up.
