What is lemon curd? That's what I said a few months ago when Lyle's mother found a recipe that she thought would be fun to try. It was the recipe for these delightful little morsels:
It's a simple little recipe, and I'll share it one day. But for now I will just say that Alton Brown is the king of fantastic Lemon Curd. Which is basically a lemon custard, but its really not hard to make! Follow his recipe, and you will end up with a fantastic product. It is a little tricky to make it. So if you are intimidated by it, follow the process of this video with Alton's recipe. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqUKUxgsq44&feature=related When you are all done, if the lemon flavor is too strong for you, feel free to mix it with some whipped cream and it will lighten the flavor. You can also lighten the lemon flavor when you make it by adding water as a portion of the required lemon juice amount.
It's soooooooo good with blackberries, blueberries, raspberries.........You can bake it in a tart, you can use it as a layer for parfaits, you can just eat it (like I've been doing). Yum!
You make me hungry..........:)
