Ingredients
- 3 egg yolks chalaza (white cord) discarded
- 1/3 cup sugar
- ¼ cup lime juice
- 1 teaspoon lime zest finely grated
- 4 Tablespoons butter 2 ounces
- 1 tiny drop blue food coloring optional, if looking for greener color
Instructions
- Thoroughly mix all ingredients except butter in blender or small saucepan. If using blender, pour mix into small saucepan.
- Heat on medium whisking until mixture becomes thick, resembling the texture of hollandaise sauce, about 10 minutes.
- Remove pan from heat. Cut the butter into 8 pieces, then whisk, a couple at a time, into the curd. If desired, strain curd, then pour into storage container (I use a half pint canning jar) and refrigerate. The curd will continue to thicken as it cools. Cool at least an hour before serving.
