Ingredients
- ½ cup white sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 tbsp fresh orange zest, about 1 orange
- ⅓ cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 8 tbsp unsalted butter, cut into tablespoons
Instructions
- Heat a double boiler (or a heat-proof mixing bowl) placed in a pot of water on the stove over medium heat.
- Whisk together the sugar, eggs, egg yolks, orange zest, orange juice, and lemon juice together in the top portion of the double boiler.
- Cook, whisking often until the mixture thickens and reaches a temperature of 170 degrees. Remove from the heat and immediately whisk in the butter.
- Strain the orange curd through a fine-mesh strainer into a glass jar or storage container. Allow to cool for 15-20 minutes then press a piece of plastic wrap across the top and refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours to firm up a bit. Store sealed in an airtight jar in the refrigerator.
- Serve the orange curd on crepes, pancakes & waffles, toast, muffins, or ice cream. Enjoy.
