Lemon Curd

Ingredients

Lemon 4 things
Butter 100 g
Sugar 300 gr.
Egg 4 things.

Cooking method

  • We take 4 large lemons and three zest on a fine grater - do not overdo it! you need to rub only the yellow layer, not the white! then squeeze out the juice of "bald" lemons to the grated zest (preferably through a sieve), add 100 g of butter - better cut into cubes and sugar. We put on a water bath. At this time, break 4 eggs and beat with a mixer. When the butter and sugar are melted in the bath, pour in a tiny trickle of eggs - at the same time we stir intensively with a whisk. Leave in the bath for another 15-20 minutes until thickened. If you plan to store it, then it is better to put everything in sterilized jars and in the refrigerator. Spread deliciously on fresh bread, buns or use in baked goods.

Time for preparing:

20-30 minutes

tell the stupid to what extent, that is, until it thickens, it must be kept on fire, otherwise for me 15-20 minutes this is somehow not entirely clear, since everyone's stoves are different and the minimum fire is also. And I would also like to know what it is after it has stood, that is, when it cools down and whether its density can be changed depending on its purpose. Sorry, well, I really like to be "chewed"

Mamontenok , when you pour the beaten eggs into a saucepan, you have to stir all the time, it is better to use a whisk. First, there will be an egg foam mass on top, gradually it will interfere with the lemon syrup (medium heat) and stir so for 15-20 minutes. , as soon as the whole mass becomes homogeneous and turns yellow - it becomes thick, you can turn off the gas or the stove. As it cools, it still thickens and it turns out like a cream - you can smear it on a roll, smear a cake or just eat it with a spoon - believe me, it's a very tasty thing, my granddaughter just eats with a spoon - she really likes

Oh, OREESHEK, thanks for the clarification, drooling has already begun to flow, tomorrow I will buy lemons and I will definitely cook it, you describe it too deliciously. I would also like to know how much cream comes out of this set of products, otherwise I am afraid for my men to drink tea at one time, and how much can it be stored in the refrigerator and is it convenient to cook it in several portions at once or is it better in parts?

I have about half a serving. liter. a bank, I keep it in a hol-ke - it doesn't lie for a long time, it just gets eaten. Try to make one portion for a test, and there you already decide. Like it - you can make a double portion at once in a larger saucepan, but then you need to boil minutes. thirty

Thanks "nut" I will definitely try, I think that this is such a yummy, which I also will not stale for a long time. four sweet tooth in one house is something.

The only pity is that when the product is kept in a water bath, up to 90% of the vitamin C contained in lemon juice is irreversibly destroyed.
Ru
But what if you immediately pour in half of the lemon juice, and pour another half towards the end?

I made a lemon curd. Made in a milk cooker.It thickened very quickly, in 5 minutes. Almost did not interfere, since it does not burn in the milk cooker. Thanks to Admin for purchasing the saucepan. When the Kurd cooled down, it turned out to be very thick. Next time I'll put more sugar. But still delicious. The whole evening longs for tea to drink, which I do, with cookies. I'll bake pancakes tomorrow. Thanks for the recipe, I will do more

I cooked it! It's just a miracle and not a cream! Yesterday I took the oath to my future son-in-law and took a cake with such cream as a gift, left with a bang. , in general, the recipe is right for him. In general, I am delighted, thank you so much for the recipe !!!!
