WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU LEMONS
OLD-FASHIONED BUTTERMILK PIE WITH LEMON CURD
Do you love lemon flavor? If so, I’m
about to change your life with the
most amazing homemade lemon curd
recipe!
I love anything lemon flavor, and
especially if it is made with real
lemons or real lemon juice.
When my Meyer lemon tree is filled
with lemons, it makes me giddy just
thinking about all the things I want
to make. In Texas it’s not real easy to
grow citrus trees – probably because
of extreme heat for months in a row
during the summer and then as you
know it can get fairly cold here and
even ice or snow in the winter… so, I
have to grow citrus trees in pots.
My trees aren’t very big, but I usually
get 15-20 lemons each year and I
love it! There is just no comparison
between lemons right off the tree and
store bought ones.
This year when so many lemons were
ripe all at the same time, I decided
to juice some of them and put it in
ice cube trays so I always have fresh
lemon juice whenever I need it for a
recipe.
Recently, I decided to try to make
homemade lemon curd to also
use in some of my lemon recipes.
I researched lots of ways to make
lemon curd and came up with my own
method, ingredients and proportions.
It turned out so good!
So, let me share how to make the
most amazing homemade lemon curd
with you.
