I don’t have much of a sweet tooth, instead I tend to crave sour sweets and citrus flavours. Fizzy cola bottles always used to be my favourite treat before I went vegan (anyone happens to find a good vegan version, please let me know!) so I don’t think you’ll be surprised when I say this lemon curd isn’t that sweet. Instead it’s delightfully tart with rich undertones.
This was actually one of the first recipes I came up with when I first turned vegan. I started by trying to veganise recipes that my family would appreciate. My father’s favourite dessert always used to be lemon meringue pie and a good curd is essential. This isn’t quite the curd I’d use for that but it is perfect for toast and take at look on Wednesday for the baking I recommend with this.
