Saronne Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Fair exchange - gave my sister some eggs and got a jar of lemon curd in return. I've eaten half a jar in one day. delicious with natural yoghurt. Making my mouth water now. gonna have to go to the fridge. I made some lemon curd today and s"Ooops, word censored!"ed the last bits into a small bowl of natural yoghurt. It was heavenly.

Daphne Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Thanks for this - I bought some cheap lemons on Saturday because I just couldn't resist them even tho I knew there were too many for me to eat (12). Really stupid. Anyway, I've already given some to my neighbour but now I'm going to make this; it'll make good swapsies for local favours if nothing else!

Daphne Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 OK - so this is the best recipe and the easiest recipe in the world combined! Complete yumminess. I can't believe I've been missing out for so long and now I can't wait for breakfast tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyjulian Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I made this at the weekend - fantastic recipe, now added to my Big Recipe Book Quick question though: if I put it into a lemon meringue pie, will the curd stand reheating or will that liquify it?

The Dogmother Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 My guess is that reheating it isn't a good idea; it probably wouldn't liquefy, but the eggs in it might set like rock! I use it in small tarts (filling added after baking) or in a victoria sponge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daphne Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Its in my recipe book now too - and I've given it to a neighbour! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I make it a lot on request, especially as a gift. It needs to be in the fridge though and eaten quickly, which isn't a hardship at all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Speckled Hen Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I made this at the weekend - fantastic recipe, now added to my Big Recipe Book Quick question though: if I put it into a lemon meringue pie, will the curd stand reheating or will that liquify it? I use this in my lemon meringue pies when the family come for dinner. It does work. I have to cook two extra so that my step daughters can each take one home. It's the best lemon curd recipe I have ever tried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
