Sweet, tart and lucious! Perfect on scones, gingerbread or as a filling for tartlets or in layers of a cake. Meyer lemons are sweeter than a regular lemon and have more flavor, they are not just sour. Ingredients:
4 egg yolks |
1/2 cup sugar |
3 ounces meyer lemon juice |
2 tablespoons butter, cut into pieces and softened |
1 pinch salt |
1 meyer lemon, zest of |
Directions:
1. Whisk together yolks and sugar in a non-reactive pan, like stainless steel.
2. Add lemon juice and butter and continue stirring over medium high heat, being careful not to boil, until it coats the back of a spoon.
3. Once thickened, take off the heat and pass through a strainer. Stir in the zest.
4. Cover with plastic wrap, pressed to the surface so it doesn't form a skin and chill until cold and set.
