Triple Berry Curd
I love curds! Typically lemon curd is the most common (for good reason... it's amazing). Meyer lemon curd is especially wonderful! Check the end of this post for some of my favorite curd recipes from some of my favorite bloggers. Spring seems like such an excellent time to make curd. It's fresh and fruity, it freezes well and is a perfect cupcake or cake filling, topping for pancakes, waffles, crepes and toast as well as muffins, scones and a host of other breakfast breads. A few weeks ago, a blogger friend made strawberry curd and that inspired me to make this triple berry curd. It is absolutely heavenly. I have filled chocolate cupcakes and paired it with a cream cheese spread on fresh bagels so far and it is equally amazing licked straight off the spoon!
Triple Berry Curd
4 egg yolks
1 whole egg
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup pureed strawberries
1/2 cup pureed blueberries
1/2 cup pureed blackberries
2 teaspoons vanilla
8 Tablespoons butter (cut into pieces)
Whisk egg yolks and whole egg together in a heavy bottomed pan and heat thoroughly (careful not to boil). Whisk in sugar and stir until thickened. Stir in berry purees and vanilla. Continue to whisk until mixture is very thick and remove from heat. Stir in butter, one piece at a time, until combined and pour into your choice of jar or container. This recipe makes 18-20 ounces. Cool counter top and then refrigerate up to one month or freeze up to 5 months.

ReplyDeleteI have a large container of strawberries waiting to be made into "something". This sounds like a great idea.
ReplyDeleteThis looks scrumptious! I'm thinking it would make a fab stuffed French toast.
ReplyDeleteYeah! Sounds delish! I am excited my strawberry curd led you to bigger and better flavors! :)
ReplyDeleteI had no idea you could even make berry curd! I bet it would be amazing in a layered cake or even on toast. I will have to try making this.
ReplyDeleteLove the berry version! I want to try Cristie's lemon curd too!

ReplyDeleteOh I LOVE it! I love curds but never even imagined berry curd! And how I love berries! I am so making this curd this summer. Extraordinary! And what a gorgeous color!
ReplyDeleteMmm. Blueberries in the curd sounds fantastic. Your recipe is pretty similar to mine, but I'll have to experiment with different berries. Too bad the summer berries season are over. I might have to resort to some frozen ones! Thanks for checking out my site!
