12 servings

20 minutes

Lemon curd is a delicate, velvety cream with a bright citrus aroma that is a classic of French cuisine. Its history dates back to 18th-century English and French recipes when fruit curds became popular in desserts. This cream has a rich sweet-and-sour flavor where the freshness of lemons harmonizes with the softness of sugar and eggs. It is perfect for breakfast—spread on toast or a bun, it turns the morning into a gastronomic delight. Lemon curd can be used as a filling for tarts, cream for cakes, or even as a standalone treat. Its preparation requires attention, but the result justifies the effort: its rich, smooth, and intense flavor makes it a true decoration for any table.
