Process

  1. Add granulated sugar to a ceramic saucepan, along with 3 tbsp of orange zest. Massage the zest into the sugar with your fingertips to help release the oil and give the curd a bright, citrusy flavor.

  2. Add in the 6 egg yolks (or 3 large eggs) and whisk the ingredients together until well combined. Then mix in the freshly squeezed orange juice and salt.

  3. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens, about 20-25 minutes. Once it's thick enough to coat the back of a spoon remove from the heat.

  4. Add in the cold butter pieces, and mix until the butter is fully melted and all ingredients are combined.

  5. Pour the orange curd into a separate bowl through a mesh strainer, then place in the fridge to cool and thicken before using. Enjoy!
