White Chocolate–Lemon Curd
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 large egg yolks
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon zest
- ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
- ½ cup fresh lemon juice
- ¼ cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 2 ounces chopped white chocolate
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together sugar, egg, egg yolks, cornstarch, lemon zest, and salt until smooth. Add lemon juice, whisking until mixture is smooth. Bring to a gentle boil over medium-low heat and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and registers 170° on a food thermometer, at least 1 minute.
- Strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium heatproof bowl. Whisk in butter, a cube at a time, until well combined and smooth. Whisk in white chocolate until melted and smooth. Cover with a piece of plastic wrap, pressing wrap directly onto surface of curd to prevent a skin from forming. Let cool completely. Refrigerate until chilled completely. Use within 3 days.
