Lemon curd on egg without starch

Simple and amazingly delicious! With tea, the very thing! Lemon Curd or lemon cream is an English dessert that is very popular in many countries. In fact, this is custard, only lemon juice is used instead of milk. The cream turns out to be very sunny, gentle, light and fragrant. It has a pleasant sweet taste with sour notes.This cream is perfectly combined with various buns, croissants, puffs, as well as with any other pastries. It can also be used as a cream for cakes. And I like it just with tea. With a spoon! Straight from the jar)))))))
