What's for dessert? Rich and creamy Meyer Lemon curd! Don't worry, if you can't find Meyer lemons, or they are out of season, you can still make this delicious, tangy dessert. But you must make it a point to keep your eye out for Meyer lemons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My absolute favorite fruit is lemon and even better if it's a Meyer lemon!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meyer lemons are rounder and smaller than regular lemons and taste like a mix between a lemon and mandarin oranges. If you find regular lemons too tart, you will appreciate Meyer lemons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I'm a lemon lover who enjoys eating lemons, even the peel appeals to me? See what I did there? Seriously though, try it sometime. Just give the peel a good scrub before you eat or zest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you aren't zesting lemons you haven't started eating yet! Go buy a zester<\/a> and get zesting! Particularly, Meyer lemons have a fragrant and beautiful tasting zest. Zest Meyer lemons on top of fish, chicken, salad, pasta, rice, lemon cake, donuts – whatever you'd like to impart a citrusy flavor to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Do You Make Lemon Curd<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let's face it we're making pudding with a lemon flavor. Making lemon curd is no harder than making homemade pudding. The key is to heat slowly and keep stirring. Scorching and cooking the egg yolks are the risks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fresh lemon juice and lemon zest are an absolute must for the best tasting final result.<\/p>\n\n\n
