Como fazer Lemon Curd Without Butter

  1. Wash 2 large lemons thoroughly. Carefully zest the lemons, avoiding the bitter white pith. You should have about 2 tablespoons of zest.
  2. Juice the lemons; you should have about 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice.
  3. In a medium saucepan, combine the lemon zest and 2 tablespoons of cornstarch (or arrowroot powder) that has been whisked smoothly with 1/4 cup of the lemon juice to form a slurry.
  4. Add 1 cup of granulated sugar to the saucepan.
  5. Whisk constantly over low heat until the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture is smooth.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk 3 large eggs until light and frothy. Gradually whisk the warm lemon mixture into the eggs to temper them.
  7. Pour the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan. Turn the heat to medium-low and whisk continuously until the curd thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 5-7 minutes). Do not boil.
  8. Remove from heat immediately. Strain the curd through a fine-mesh sieve (optional, but recommended for extra smooth texture).
  9. Pour the lemon curd into sterilized jam jars or airtight containers. Allow to cool completely before refrigerating. Enjoy within 2 weeks.
