Cómo preparar Microwave Lemon Curd With Canning Instructions
- In a large, microwave-safe bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice until well combined.
- Add the butter, cut into small pieces, to the bowl.
- Microwave on high for 1 minute. Remove and stir thoroughly.
- Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring vigorously after each interval, until the curd is thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 4-6 minutes total, depending on your microwave). The curd should be thick but still pourable. Do not boil!
- Strain the curd through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl to remove any lumps. Discard the solids.
- Cover the surface of the curd with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming. Let it cool completely to room temperature.
- Once cooled, transfer the curd to sterilized canning jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Wipe the rims clean, and seal with lids and bands. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust time based on your altitude – consult a canning guide for details).
- Remove from the canner and let cool completely. You should hear a satisfying “pop” sound as the jars seal. Store in a cool, dark place.
