I mean it
Why?
I love lemons, adore them, cannot think of a tastier flavour of sponge. There are few better smells in the world and they rock yellow like no human could.
Yet until very recently I hadn't ever made the effort to make homemade. I had this recipe from the lovely Fishy and bonny Mrs B (whose shared foodie blog I miss with all my stomach and would bribe them to post again) bookmarked for an age and had copied it into my favourite treat notebook. I mean for yonks and yonks!
Anyhoo, I have no excuse and if I had known how effing easy peasy lemon squeasy it was going to be to make I would [like to think I'd] have done it sooner.
It is the best lemon curd I have ever eaten and had to take Mrs B's advice and pair it with my favourite scone recipe with added poppy seeds.
There was enough for just about two jars becauseI didn't use standard sizes. I knew once I saw those golden filled jars I had to get sewing, sorry embroidering (see still have issues with the names).
Still wanting Robert Plant to squeeze ma lemon. That will never change whenever and everytime I think of lemons
Says what it was, lovely lemon curd.
If you have never tried making it, please do. You will be rewarded with heaven in every mouthful.
Some strange people, namely Mr Biscuit are not impressed by lemons, fools and numpties one and all. He is both, trust me!
