We hope you enjoy this video and that you take a chance on making any of the three recipes below. 


Lemon Curd

INGREDIENTS:
3/4 cup lemon juice 
1 tablespoon lemon zest 
3/4 cup sugar 
3 eggs 
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cubed 

PREPARATION:
Put all ingredients together in a saucepan over medium heat and whisk constantly for about 8-10 minutes until it thickens. Transfer to a storage container and cover surface with plastic wrap to keep curd from developing a skin. Cool in refrigerator. 


Blueberry-raspberry Compote

INGREDIENTS:
1.5 cup blueberries 
1 cup raspberries 
1/4 cup sugar 
2 tbsp water 
1 tsp lemon zest 

PREPARATION:
Put all ingredients (but using only 1 1/4 cup of the blueberries and 3/4 cup of raspberries) together in a saucepan over medium heat and bring to a low boil for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing berries to burst and partially liquefy. Remove from heat and stir in remaining berries. Allow to cool for 20 minutes and transfer to a storage container. Cool in refrigerator.
