Citrus Curd
Lemon curd, lime curd, orange curd, whichever way you squeeze it, this is going to become your go to curd, butter recipe. Thanks Thermomix.
This is lemon curd or lemon butter, with mixed citrus flavours...you really can use anything, you will get slightly different acidity levels, and I do suggest the addition of doterra oils in the corresponding citrus flavour to add a real punch to the spread.
I love using this curd through some whipped cream and drizzled on top of a sponge sandwich...gave a couple of jars away and of course slathered the rest on brioche toast...another fave.
This makes a great tart filling, make a quick vanilla bean pastry, blind bake mini tartlets, and just before serving, dollop in cold citrus curd. Stir through whipped cream, fresh raspberries and cubes of sponge cake or pavlova for a quick dessert, serve over vanilla ice cream as an elegant topping or as mentioned, it is fantastic on brioche toast, French toast or even brioche French toast....can you imagine?
