Goût Français

I bought a large bag of lemons on sale a couple of weeks ago, and didn't end up using as many as I thought I would for salad dressings and drinks.  A couple minutes on the google machine and I'd found my lemon surplus solution:

French lemon curd.

Theses miraculously tasted exactly the same as they do in France.  I doubled the recipe, but it still wasn't enough.  We went through one large tarte and a whole platter of mini tartes au citron in two days. 

I think I've found my new obsession.

  2. Here's the link to the lemon curd: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Lemon-Curd/Detail.aspx.

    I've used a short bread for the crust and also just a store-bought pie crust that I cut into rounds with our glass cups and put in a greased cupcake pan. Easy (as they say) as pie.
