Lemon Curd

3/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
3/4 cup sugar
3 eggs
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cubed

In a medium saucepan, combine all ingredients. Cook over medium-low heat until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 6 minutes.

Strain through fine-mesh strainer.  Cover with plastic wrap so wrap is touching all the surface of the curd.  Refrigerate until completely cold, at least 2 hours.


Makes 1 2/3 cups
