Ingredients:

  • 1/2 tbsp grated key lime zest
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 3 large eggs

Directions:

  1. Whisk together zest, juice, sugar, salt, and eggs in a small heavy saucepan. Add butter and cook over medium-low heat, whisking frequently, until thick enough to hold marks of whisk, about 5 minutes.
  2. Force mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl, then quick-chill in an ice bath, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
  3. Beat cream until it holds stiff peaks, then fold into custard gently but thoroughly. Spoon into glasses and chill at least 2 hours and up to 12.
