egg yolks
1
cup
sugar
3
Meyer lemons
zested and juiced (1/2 cup of juice)
1
stick of butter
1/2 cup cut in 1 inch pieces
Instructions
Whisk egg yolks and sugar in a small saucepan.
Heat over medium heat taking care to make sure the mixture doesn't boil.
Gently stir in lemon juice and zest.
Stir continuously for 10-15 until curd thickens and can coat the back of a wooden spoon (it should still be pourable).
Stir in butter until melted.
Strain the curd using a fine mesh strainer into a glass bowl (to remove any cooked bits of egg).
