Grapefruit Curd


I attempted to make grapefruit curd for the first time in August 2010. It was a disaster and didn't set at all. I finally managed to put my demons behind me and tried again this week. Success!

I used a different recipe and I think that sieving the eggs might have made all the difference. And the simmer ring on our gas hob might have helped too. Plus stirring for 50 minutes non-stop.

So far, it's been delicious with pikelets and lemon muffins and toast. I'll make some yoghurt soon and stir it through for a tasty dessert.
