Yield Makes 3/4 cup

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 cup sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons grated key-lime zest plus 1/4 cup freshly squeezed key-lime juice (6 limes)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Steps:

  • Combine sugar, eggs, lime zest, and juice in a medium nonreactive saucepan, and set over medium-low heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until mixture begins to thicken and holds the mark of the whisk, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Remove pan from heat, and whisk in butter, a piece at a time, until well combined. Strain mixture through a sieve into a glass bowl. Lay plastic directly on surface to prevent a skin from forming. Chill 3 hours or overnight to set the curd.

I'm allergic to eggs, so I can't make this recipe. :(

This recipe is missing some key ingredients. It doesn't call for any sugar, which makes the curd very sour.

I followed the recipe exactly and my curd turned out lumpy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This curd is a bit too tart for my taste, but I'm sure it would be perfect for someone who likes their desserts on the sour side.

I'm not a huge fan of key lime pie, but this curd is so good that I could eat it by the spoonful.

This curd is amazing! I used it to make key lime pie and it was the best pie I've ever had.

This is the best key lime curd I've ever had. It's so easy to make and it tastes like it came from a bakery.

I've made this curd twice now and it's always turned out perfectly. It's so smooth and creamy, and the flavor is out of this world.

This key lime curd is the perfect balance of tart and sweet. It's so easy to make and it tastes amazing. I used it to fill a pie and it was a huge hit.
