Lemon Curd question

chicco2, Mar 30, 8:15am
I would like to know if I can use Lemonades (A sweet variety of lemon) to make Lemon Curd. I use them all the time for lots of baking, fish etc, but they are not as strong in lemon flavour and I often use extra zest to boost the lemoness. Does the Curd need the acidity of real lemons or should I just have go with extra zest?

the flavour of the lemon is what helps with the taste but if you like a softy lemon taste then use the others... . . have fun! !

Yes they will work, but will not be as acid. You can make curd with any citrus fruit.

You can use whatever you like. I have made it with lemons, oranges and also tangeloes and they were all delicious and different.

Thanks, I will give it a go. Our Lemonade tree has heaps of fruit and as well as freezing juice, its nice to have lots of other ideas to use these yummy fruit.
