To make this tangy yet rich dessert, you’ll need a cup of your favourite citrus juice, the zest of one fruit, three eggs (2 yolks + 1 whole), 1/4 cups sugar, four tablespoons unsalted butter, and a pinch of salt. Any citrus will do; you can even combine juices and zests for exciting flavour combinations. Click the link below for exact instructions, but it’s really just a matter of heating, cooling, and a good bit of whisking. Once your curd is made, pipe it into little pastry cups, spread on scones, or eat straight from the jar.
