Time 20m

Yield 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 oranges, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 pound unsalted butter, at room temperature
4 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
16 long stem strawberries, for dipping

Steps:

  • Remove the zest from the oranges with a vegetable peeler, being careful to avoid the white pith. Put the zest in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Add the sugar and pulse until the zest is very finely minced.
  • Cream the butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the sugar/orange zest mixture and mix until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, then add the orange juice and salt. Mix until combined.
  • Pour the mixture into a 2-quart saucepan and cook over low heat until thickened, about 10 minutes, stirring constantly. The orange curd will be ready when it coats a spoon, and it will register about 175 degrees F on a candy thermometer. Be careful not to overcook, or it will curdle. Remove from the heat and let cool or refrigerate.
  • Place the orange curd in a bowl and decoratively arrange the strawberries on a serving platter around the bowl.

I love the tangy flavor of this orange curd. It's the perfect balance to the sweetness of the other ingredients in my dessert recipes.

I had some trouble getting the orange curd to thicken. I ended up having to cook it for a little longer than the recipe said.

This orange curd is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
