LIME, ORANGE OR LEMON CURD
Easy to make and so many uses, I like to mix a few tablespoons with some rum and drizzle that over coconut ice cream. Not to forget it is a nice gift.

Steps:
- Soften the limes by rolling them back and forth with your hands on the kitchen counter; you will get more juice out of them if you do this.
- Grate the zest very finely, take care that you dont grate the white pith.
- Squeeze the juice out of the fruit; you will need 150mL.
- Put the rind (zest), butter, sugar and juice in a heatproof basin.
- Stand this over a pan of boiling water and heat until the sugar and butter have melted.
- Lower the heat, you dont want the water to boil now.
- Whisk in the eggs, when incorporated use a wooden spoon and stir until the curd has thickened and coats the back of the spoon, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Pour into hot jars, when cool label them.
- Use this recipe also to make orange or lemon curd, just make sure you have 150mL juice Keep in the fridge.

FRESH LIME CURD
When life gives you a bunch of limes, make lime curd! This twist on traditional lemon curd uses limes instead. Use it as a cake filling, or any other way you desire.

LEMON CURD (STOVE TOP OR MICROWAVE METHOD) LIME OR ORANGE CURD
A British tea time favorite. This is sweet and tart. Try it on scones, muffins, and tea breads or layer on Angel Food cake with Raspberries and recipe #54868! I've also microwaved this just watch and stir a lot. For orange or lime curd, substitute appropriate fruit rind and juice. Proceed as directed. FYI- When filling a cake with this be sure to pipe a rim of frosting on the edge of the first layer, then fill inside with the chilled lemon curd, place top layer then frost.

Steps:
- Stove top Method:.
- In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine lemon zest, lemon juice, and sugar.
- Bring just to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 5 minutes.
- Add butter and stir until it has melted and combined.
- Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
- Beat eggs into cooled lemon mixture until well blended.
- Return to heat and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, 10 to 15 minutes or until mixture thickens and coats spoon.
- Remove from heat.
- Cover and refrigerator at least 1 hour.
- Microwave Method:.
- Place butter in a large glass measure or bowl. Microwave on high for 10 seconds or until the butter is soft, but not melted.
- Whisk in the sugar, lemon rind and lemon juice. Add the whole eggs and yolks and blend well.
- Cover with parchment paper and microwave on high for 3 minutes, stirring well after each minute or until mixture thickens and coats spoon.( May need more time for all microwave ovens are different so be sure it coats the spoon as for a custard!).
- Cover and refrigerator at least 1 hour.
- Pour into a sterilized glass jar(s) (jam jars are perfect) and leave to cool.
- Store in the refrigerator.
ORANGE CURD
Steps:
- Remove the zest from the oranges with a vegetable peeler, being careful to avoid the white pith. Put the zest in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Add the sugar and pulse until the zest is very finely minced.
- Cream the butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the sugar/orange zest mixture and mix until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, then add the orange juice and salt. Mix until combined.
- Pour the mixture into a 2-quart saucepan and cook over low heat until thickened, about 10 minutes, stirring constantly. The orange curd will be ready when it coats a spoon, and it will register about 175 degrees F on a candy thermometer. Be careful not to overcook, or it will curdle. Remove from the heat and let cool or refrigerate.
- Place the orange curd in a bowl and decoratively arrange the strawberries on a serving platter around the bowl.
LEMON CURD
Steps:
- Add enough water to a medium saucepan to come about 1-inch up the side. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Meanwhile, combine egg yolks and sugar in a medium size metal bowl and whisk until smooth, about 1 minute. Measure citrus juice and if needed, add enough cold water to reach 1/3 cup. Add juice and zest to egg mixture and whisk smooth. Once water reaches a simmer, reduce heat to low and place bowl on top of saucepan. (Bowl should be large enough to fit on top of saucepan without touching the water.) Whisk until thickened, approximately 8 minutes, or until mixture is light yellow and coats the back of a spoon. Remove promptly from heat and stir in butter a piece at a time, allowing each addition to melt before adding the next. Remove to a clean container and cover by laying a layer of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the curd. Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
