Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the strawberries

    In a blender or food processor, puree the fresh strawberries until smooth. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Combine ingredients

    In a medium saucepan, combine the strawberry puree, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and eggs. Whisk until smooth.

  3. 3

    Cook the mixture

    Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 10-15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add butter

    Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the unsalted butter, one tablespoon at a time, until completely melted and incorporated.

  5. 5

    Cool and store

    Pour the strawberry lemon curd into a clean jar or container. Allow to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until chilled.
