Ingredient: Lemons
Servings: 8 (makes about 1 cup)
Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup(s) lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
  • 2 teaspoon(s) lemon zest (from about 1 lemon)
  • 1/8 teaspoon(s) turmeric (optional for colour)
Instructions
  • In a small pot, whisk together the sugar and cornstarch. Now mix in the non-dairy milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and turmeric. Put over medium heat, whisking frequently, until the curd thickens, about 5 minutes. You may need to whisk vigorously as it thickens to ensure a smooth curd.
