This week has been quite busy, but Peach Curd was a pleasant discovery and good distraction! So are you looking for a bit of happiness for your taste buds or are you looking for a fast filling to do on your own? This Peach Curd could be the answer to your problems and your desire!
Sweet and creamy, a bit of paradise on to your mouth, I have to admit that I ate the biggest quantity of it with my spoon than the quantity I used as a filling!
But let’s see how to make this piece of sweet paradise for your taste buds, Peach Curd is here my friends!
PEACH CURD
- 340g of pureed peaches (3 large peaches)
- 4 egg yolks
- 70g of butter
- 85g of sugar
- the juice of 1-2 lemons
First of all, peel off the skin of the peaches and remove the central bone.Cut them into cubes and in a blender, blend the peaches cubes until you reach a puree without any lumps.
In a heatproof bowl, mix the puree with egg yolks, sugar and lemon juice. Place the bowl over a pot of boling water (the water can’t touch the bowl!) and whisk costantly for about 20. 30 minutes – it can be very rough, so ask help from someone or your poor arm will hurt!
Now remove the bowl from the heat and add a bit at time the butter into the mixture and whisk well. Now put the curd into jars and let it cool completely. If it looks a bit liquid it’s quite normal, let cool it and it will thicken enough.
The taste is awesome and sweet, I think you will love it! If you want you can also have a look at the Lemon Curd recipe, here!
