Hi Peeps!
Summer is finally here, hot damn! ????
So naturally, Summery cooking, baking, happening in the kitchen (thank goodness for counter top oven and air conditioning, right? ?).
Today I prepared jam…well lemon curd…does curd belong to jam/spread family? ?
My oldest loooovvveesss citrus flavor much, he can suck on fresh lemon and/or lime, like licking a lollipop. Which is funny, because my youngest doesn’t like citrus flavor much, only sweet Mandarin ?
Anyhoo.
When I was cooking the curd, both came down to the kitchen and said, hmmm what are you cooking, smells so nice, like something fresh, but also something else.
?
The last time I made proper lemon curd, my oldest was only 1 year old ? Yep. Been too freaking long.
Anyways…here are the ingredients!
- 600 g lemon
- 2 c sugar
- 4 eggs
- 110 g butter
