Just made this and it is sooooo yummy.. I think i will try the microplane next time as the kids moaned about the bits.. I made about 600ml with organic fruit and can taste the lemon..

Michael is right – no pun…- a fine microplane gives an easily taken fine zest which if left in the curd intensifies the taste and leaves an old fashioned feel to the curd -

if you grate the lime zest on a micro plane you can leave it in the curd and it tastes great, you dont HAVE to take it out

I have made the lemon curd but used a potato peeler for getting rind off. So much easier to get the rind out at the end. First time I have made it, very pleased thanks

All homemade curds don't last long (because of the eggs). They're best kept in the refrigerator and eaten within 2 or 3 weeks at the most.

how long does it store in jars?

To remove the zest from the cooked curd, press the hot curd through a fine sieve before bottling.
