Whipped Lemon Cream
This is not your usual lemon butter, but in fact an emulsified, lemon cream. I love it. Same ingredients as lemon butter, but different method.
This looks like lemon curd or butter, but is far different in that it is an emulsion. It has almost the same ingredients, but it is the method that is quite different. I am newly infatuated with this version as it is PERFECT for tartlets, pastries or desserts. Of course it is still amazing on sourdough, but hello...dessert ideas coming your way soon with this incredible new discovery in lemony science.
I hope you give it a whirl. It is well worth the effort and as we all know, the gifting season is but a month or two away, this will make any lemon fan swoon were you to give them a pretty jar. Yummy.
