The uses are practically endless.

I used a Microplane zester to make the lemon zest in this recipe fine enough so that you don’t need to strain the zest from the curd after making. 

That made life much easier and especially since I don’t seem to own a fine-mesh sieve. I will have to remember to put that gadget on my holiday gift list.

US CustomaryMetric

 

1x2x3x

• 3 large eggs room temperature
• ⅔ cup powdered low carb sweetener
• ½ cup fresh lemon juice juice of about 2 large lemons
• 1 ½ tsp finely grated lemon zest use a Microplane zester to grate fine enough so no straining of curd is needed.

Instructions

 

• In a small saucepan (not heated yet), combine sweetener, lemon juice, lemon zest, and eggs. Whisk until combined.
• Add the butter and cook over medium-low heat, while stirring continuously with a whisk or wooden spoon, until the first bubble appears and the curd is thick enough to hold marks of the whisk or spoon, about 4-7 minutes.
• Transfer the hot lemon curd to a jar and cover the surface with plastic wrap.
• Refrigerate until cold, then remove the plastic wrap and replace it with a lid. The lemon curd will keep fresh in the refrigerator for about 1 week. Makes just under 2 cups.

Notes

Tips:

Try to use fresh lemon juice for lemon curd, not the store-bought prepared concentrate variety for a better-tasting result.

Don’t use aluminum or unlined copper pans or spoons when heating the curd. They could have a reaction with the acids in the lemons and can discolor the curd and create a metallic aftertaste.
