LEMON CURDS (serve with biscuits, crumpets...)

Ingredients:

2 sticks (1/2 pound) unsalted butter, softened

1/2 cup fresh lemon juice, strained

1/2 cup sugar

3 large egg yolks

Directions:

In a medium bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water, melt the butter with the lemon juice and sugar, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved. Whisk in the egg yolks, 1 at a time, and cook over moderately high heat, whisking constantly, until the curd is the consistency of loose sour cream, about 15 minutes. strain the curd into a bowl and press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate before serving.

Makes about 1 1/2 cups
