Recipe review - citrus curd - For Foods sake - pg. 16

[maddy]

This is a lovely, tangy curd, and I like the fact it wasn't over the top sweet as some can be.
  I used equal quantities of lime & lemon juice/zest.
Popped it in a tart shell, and dessert was done

It looks delicious Maddy.

Made this today,tastes delicious.It filled three jars of various sizes plus a little leftover which I put into a ramekin. Two jars will be given away as thank you gifts for friends

I did the same last weekend CC. Gave two jars away and had rave reviews and one even returned the jar! Bit of a hint I think. As Maddy says, it's not too sweet.  Will be making again and again.

Its really great, gave some to Jens mum and she asked if I had used her recipe. Told her it only took 12mins in Thx. She was amazed. Having friends over on Sunday so am making a citrus meringue pie.

Love.  Thank you, Tenina.  Ours was with mandarin and a bit of lemon.  Mmm.  Another batch coming up!

Yum, yum, yum!

I made this tonight and thought it was going to be a complete and utter failure as i initially overlooked adding the eggs (errrr, duhhhh).  Went back, added the eggs and cooked again as per the recipe.  It seems to have worked out perfectly.

I tried a bit of it tonight mixed in with my homemade yoghurt and it was delicious.  Such a quick and easy recipe.

Sounds like another one I need to try. Mum has bought me this book for Xmas and everyone is saying how delicious the recipes are. Only forty something more sleeps to go.

My DD made a really lovely grapefruit and lemon version yesterday!  Simply delicious!!!

My review is....
The best lemon curd I have ever made - and I have made a few different ones! 

[JAM]

Made this tonight to give away as some Christmas foodie gifts, I cannot believe how quick and easy it is!

I made as per recipe and used about 85% lemon juice and then a mix of orange and lime juice for the other 15% (using up my naked fruit after using the zest!).

It filled 6 x 100ml jars plus a teeny bit left over for me (and the lid to lick too!)

Absolutely delicious, however, next time I might not use as much lime zest as it has a bit too much 'tang' for my liking - it was a large lime though!

an impressive curd!

I made a half quantity today with the following tweaks:
50ml passionfruit juice (passionfruit pulp pushed through a sieve to remove the seeds) - this was 5 passionfruit
30ml lime juice - juice of one lime
20ml lemon juice - juice of half a small lemon

I omitted the zest and cooked at for 6 minutes (rather than 8 minutes) at 80c speed 6 and then 1 minute and 30 seconds at 90c speed 6.

I also used jumbo size eggs.  Of the three I used, two were double-yolkers (how fortunate!) so the curd was two egg whites and five egg yolks.  This probably contributed to how brightly coloured and delicious the curd is.

I think it made about 375ml of curd.

I will be making more!
