Creamy and Tart Lime Curd
Print Recipe

Ingredients

  • 3 large egg yolks
  • 1/2 cup caster sugar (scant 1/2 cup)
  • 1/3 cup fresh squeezed lime juice
  • pinch salt
  • 2 1/2 tbsp unsalted butter

Instructions

  • Whisk together all ingredients except butter in a small saucepan
  • Place over medium or medium-low heat and whisk constantly until thickened. This takes anywhere from 7-15+ minutes, so be patient
  • Remove from heat and whisk in butter. Remove to airtight container and let cool at room temperature
  • Cover & chill or freeze

Notes

  • Double this recipe if using in a tart or larger recipe; these measurements make about 1/3-1/2 cup curd total
  • If you don't have caster sugar, simply use cane sugar
