Lemon Curd Masterclass RecipesLemon Curd
Ingredients
4 Eggs
4 Lemons, juiced
225g Unsalted butter, cubed
300g Granulated sugar
Equipment Needed: Bowl, preserving pan, whisk, wooden spoon, warm sterile jam jars.
Method
Whisk up the eggs in a bowl until smooth.
Put the cubed butter in the preserving pan and slowly melt over low heat.
Add the fresh lemon juice, then slowly stir in the sugar until completely dissolved.
Once the sugar has dissolved, slowly pour in the whisked eggs while beating well with a whisk.
Cook gently over low heat, gradually increasing the temperature until the curd thickens and gently bubbles.
Transfer to sterilized glass jars, seal tightly, and store in a cool place for up to 6 weeks. Refrigerate once opened.
Orange Curd
Made using the exact same ingredients and method, but replacing two of the lemons with fresh oranges for a sweeter citrus twist. If you love classic fruit preserves, check out our handcrafted naked fruit jams or explore our delicate naked jellies.

250ml apple cider vinegar
125ml water
75g honey or sugar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp mustard seeds

½ tsp chilli flakes (optional, for heat)
1 small sprig of rosemary or thyme
Instructions
Prepare the brine: In a saucepan, combine cider vinegar, water, honey or sugar, salt, mustard seeds, peppercorns, and chilli flakes. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring until the sugar fully dissolves.
Pack the rhubarb: Place the sliced rhubarb batons into a clean glass jar, layering in the rosemary or thyme.
Pour the brine: Carefully pour the hot liquid brine over the rhubarb, ensuring it is fully submerged.
