Ingrédients

1/2 cup fresh lemon juice

1 tablespoon lemon zest

1/2 cup sugar

2 large eggs

1/4 cup unsalted butter, cubed

1/8 teaspoon salt

Instructions

In a medium saucepan, whisk together lemon juice, lemon zest, sugar, and eggs over medium heat.
Add the cubed butter and salt, and continue to whisk constantly until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 6-8 minutes.
Remove from heat and strain the curd through a fine sieve into a bowl to remove any lumps.
Cover the surface of the curd with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming.
Let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until ready to use. The curd will thicken as it cools.
