Recipe by: Jaime Oliver via Butterflyfood, adapted to use Fine Cooking’s method
•
Yields: about 850 grams of curd
•
Ingredients:
•
6 clementines, juiced
•
2 lemons, juiced (or about 4 tablespoons lemon juice)
•
350 g caster sugar (about 1 1/2 cups)
•
4 eggs, beaten
•
2 egg yolks, beaten
•
100 g unsalted butter (about 7 tablespoons)

Directions:
