ZESTY LEMON LIME CURD

Zesty Lemon Lime Curd image

The very best curd is the perfect balance between sweet, sour, creamy and buttery. Whether you eat it spread on toast, fold it through softly whipped cream for filling a sponge cake, or as the base to a quick lemon tart or meringue pie, it is vital to use the freshest lemons and eggs you can find - with so few ingredients you want to make sure that they are all top quality.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

finely grated zest of 2 large lemons, unsprayed, organic
300 g sugar
150 ml lemon juice, approx 3 large, juicy lemons
50 ml lime juice
150 g unsalted butter, cubed
6 large eggs

Steps:

Prepare 4-5 medium sized glass jars by washing well with hot soapy water then placing them in a tray in an oven at 120°C /250°F while you prepare the curd. Place the lids in a heatproof bowl and cover with boiling water.
Put the lemon zest and sugar in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water, taking care that the bottom of the bowl is not touching the water. Use your fingers to rub the zest into the sugar, releasing all of the fragrant oils. Add the lemon juice, lime juice and butter, stirring with a wooden spoon until the butter is melted - the temperature of the mixture at this point is about 55-60°C.
In a separate bowl whisk the eggs really well so that absolutely no egg white alone shows, then pour into the lemon mixture through a fine sieve. This will prevent any bits of set egg white spoiling the texture of the finished curd.
Allow to cook, stirring regularly, but not constantly, with a whisk for 15 minutes checking at least once that the water hasn't boiled away. The curd will thicken like a custard (which it is!) and reach a temperature of 82-84°C/ 180-183°F.. You should be able to see the tracks left by the whisk in the thickened curd.
Pour into the prepared jars and seal. Keeps for at least 4 weeks (see note). Once opened store in the refrigerator.
