- Smooth and tangy lemon curd is delicious, refreshing, and reminds us of sunshine and spring. It goes with so many things like over ice cream, on toast, between cake layers, or straight out of the bowl. Three ways of preserving lemon curd will ensure you always have some on hand!
If you don't have a way of measuring pH, be sure to follow the USDA approved recipe for water bath canning. Here is the link: nchfp.uga.edu/...

I’ll bet if you put a teaspoon or the Lemon Curd powder in whipped cream, it would be fabulous.
I will be trying that!
Mouth is watering!
Oh yum!!
This sounds divine.
What a great idea!!! Will do that for sure.
Oh be still my heart ❤ I love lemon curd! This video was filled with sweet things. The story of why red roses are so important to you was the sweetest of all. Thank you for the recipe and God bless you and Jim.
Thank you so much!
I just love your videos. I feel like I am learning from my favorite aunt. Thank you for all that you do.
You are so welcome, and thank you for the compliment about favorite aunt!
So pleasant to see someone share videos that lift our spirits as well as our appetite. Way to go Jim 🌹.
Thanks so much--I shared this with Jim.
I love to stir my lemon curd into greek yogurt, so yummy x
Yes it is! We love it that way too.
My weekend project.
Love the idea of dehydrating ( freeze drying)
The BEST EVER EVER recipe!!! Truly, truly, truly lemony, smooth and just DIVINE!! I’m obsessed with finding the best recipe and now my life long search is over! Thankyou Rose Red you always give away ALL the secrets others hide that take a recipe to the highest levels! ❤❤❤🍋🍋🍋🍋🙏🙏🙏
Wow! Thank you Pan & Jim! My husband loves lemon pie…I could not make a decent pie for him but this very easy to follow video has made me the winner! He loves your lemon curd! Thank you so very much. Learning lots now that I am retired.
So much to do, so many videos to watch. You are absolutely a delight to watch. Partly because of your humor, but mostly because you have done research and I always feel safe enjoying your techniques and recipes. You and Jim are the greatest. Because of you we have 2 data loggers, one is smaller than the other, pint and quart size. With them I feel so confident and safe when I give any of my precious gifts to family and some friends. Thank you to both of you for all the time you spend to deliver us great videos. Bless you both.
Impressive! You are certainly a dedicated canner.
Good gracious!! That lemon curd is sooo tantalizing, my mouth is watering! This is going in my recipe file! I lacto-fermented some lemons recently and can’t wait to get some lemon curd in the freezer and can some as well.
Pam you and Jim make my heart smile! I love it when you talk about Jim, you can just see the love emanating from eyes, smile and face. God Bless you both!
That parfait is making my mouth water...OH yum...
Fabulous, presentation! I love the excitement in our home when we see that you have a new video online. We throughly enjoyed it and look forward to canning our lemons. Thank you for sharing your projects with us.
Thank you so much for your kind remarks!
Love lemon curd with homemade blueberry scones!! I have 3 lemon trees and am always looking for lemon recipes. Thanks so much!
Ohhh...that sounds heavenly! Wish we had a lemon tree. We just got some from Costco and I am working on a video for lemon powder.
Wow. I just had a thought. Your grandchildren and future progeny will have a wonderful legacy in these videos you are creating. As long as the internet lasts, your fount of knowledge will be here. What a great gift you are giving of yourself.
Thank you for thinking of that. All of my children don't can or preserve food, so I am hoping for the exact same thing you stated. Very kind of you.
I used the links recipe because I don't have a way to test pH and it turned out soooo yummy. I love the way you teach in your videos! Thank you for the recipe and the science lesson!
You are very welcome. So glad you followed the tested recipe! Excellent!
I made 4 pints of this a few months ago. Turned out very well. I have 1 pint left! Gave 1 as a gift to my brother. I had never canned lemon curd before...and hadn't made it in years. Worked out spectacularly well. Thank you! going to make another batch this weekend for my prep shelf!
That is awesome! So glad it worked well for you and thanks for sharing that with us!
I freeze dry lemon juice too... fantastic item in my pantry
I also make Lime, Orange curds as well, and I make a 6" sponge cake and split into 3 and fill layers with, two curd flavors.
Thank you again! I have about 40 lemons in the freezer and can’t wait to make lemon curd!
That sounds fabulous! Have fun.
I didn't know you could freeze lemons! You just put whole lemons in the freezer??
To get more juice from lemon or lime just put in microwave for 15 seconds then squeeze. You get a third more juice.
I live in Kansas very rural our produce is not always the best. I own a restaurant and bar. One day my bartender went to cut lemons and limes and they were slightly frozen. She put them in microwave for 15 seconds and was amazed at the amount of juice she got. We make it standard practice now. Much less waste. I zest everyday also. Nothing goes to waste.
In Australia, we have very fine sugar called castor sugar. We use it for pavlova, and the peaked topping on lemon meringue pie.
I just made this and its literally the best I've ever tasted. Just sent my husband to the farm for more eggs to make orange.
Never done orange--I bet it will be delicious! Thanks for trying the recipe.
@@RoseRedHomestead it is devine also. Am I able to cut back on sugar? My oranges are pretty sweet.
They look so yummy
Freeze dried lemon curd would be a great addition to some homemade yogurt and jam! I sometimes use lemon zest on Icelandic skyr and bilberry jam. I followed the recipe to a T except I didn't add all the eggs! But at precisely 170 the curd was perfect. Its in the freeze dryer now.
Okay this is the video that would make me wish for a freeze dryer. I love lemon curd and to have it available at any time in long term storage? Ohhh I could certainly go for that.
I LOVE Lemon Curd! Thank you for sharing this!💕
You are so welcome!
:) happy to hear the love story.
Thanks!
👍👍🌹 🙏
I love the sweet story of RoseRed Homestead!!! ❤
I do enjoy watching you. A very special lady (Jim also I'm sure).
Thank you so much.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Lemon curd and have made it for years- wonderful on scones and toast or just eat out of the jar :) Wondering if the lemon curd would dehydrate for those of us who don't own freeze dryers?
I wondered the same thing. Can we dehydrate the lemon curd and then make it into powder?
I LOVE lemon curd!! Thanks for sharing how to make and can this item!!!
You are so welcome!
I love lemon curd! I didn’t know you could preserve it. Yay!! I’m so glad I found your channel!!
What a beautiful story of you guys. Jim went directly to your heart ❤ with the Red 🌹.....
Caribbean: Thank you. I like getting roses for Pam for any number of reasons. Jim
How wonderful I have been wanting to can lemon curd this came right on time! Thank you so much🤗
You are so welcome! Glad the timing was good for you.
Love your videos! You must have been a professor in your previous life. So clear and precise. Really helpful for those of us that are learning.
Wow, thank you! And yes, you nailed it. I have been a K-12 teacher and a university professor. Teaching is in my blood!
Oh my goodness. My mouth is watering. I love lemons 🍋.
I do too! And of course, we did not wait until the next morning for those parfaits! We had them for a lovely afternoon snack!
Looks amazing!! Tfs!! Take care and God Bless!!! ❤️✝️✝️✝️❤️
You are so welcome
God bless you all keep safe and well Thanks for the great canning tips for lemon curd
Our pleasure!
Aww! So ROMANTIC! 🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️
What a lovely red rose love story! 🌹
NEW USE FOR LEMON CURD!!! i was having a dinner party and didn't have an after dinner drink so I invented one! It was delicious and I got so many compliments! My imitation of Crema di Limoncello, Here is what I did. One pint of lemon curd, One pint of Ever Clear alcohol, one pint of heavy cream and a teaspoon and a half of vanilla. Stir it, don't shake. You don't want to make whipped cream, lol. A little of the foam on the top of each glass works great. Garnish with a very thin slice of lemon. (I only had one) Chill. If you want it sweeter add honey. I froze the leftover and made slush out of them Also yummy. Velvety smooth drink.
Very interesting...and very creative! Thanks for sharing.
I love lemon curd and am excited to try your recipe and canning method. I loved the story about your husband and roses. My husband and I also met during our first year of PhD program-we studied Chemistry! I’m looking forward to browsing your videos.
How cool! You are a pairodocs! Thanks for joining us.
How wonderful to learn how to make lemon curd! Thank you! I like mixing it with homemade cranberry sauce and folding in whipped cream for a parfait
That sounds fabulous! I am going to have to try that. Thanks for sharing!
Card night said it was good, but those ladies sometimes lie, lie, lie...lol. bless their hearts! 🤣
I love anything lemon.. beautiful roses for a beautiful lady.. you both are lucky to have each other.. thank you for a fantastic video
So nice of you--thank you.
I'm here looking for something sweet and uplifting, looks like I came to the right place bless you :)
I love lemon curd would be a beautiful gift for neighbors for Christmas with some English biscuits.
Good morning! I am certainly going to can me some lemon curd. You talked about the Texas grid system going down, and luckily some people had natural gas, but if natural gas supply demands had failed that's another resource I'm not going to count on. Off of Facebook market place I bought a RV stove, nice and clean, and I paid $180. My son tested it before I bought it, he cooked 40 minutes in the oven, worked great, and the stove vents from the top, it has 4 burners on top. It's not so heavy you can't move it. I have natural gas stove, but this stove is for my prepping room. Also, stock up on propane before winter. There is no way I want to go grill outside during zero degrees. And with a oven I'll be able to make bread, cake, and cookies. The camp stoves are to small on top to get all your pots and pans on, plus you can still can indoors with a RV stove.
Sounds like yo have all bases covered! Way to go! that stove sounds great!
Wow, lots of Great information in just one video! Thank You!!!!!!
Glad it was helpful!
I just discovered this method a short time ago, where you mix everything together than put it in the pot. So much easier. One of my favorite ways of using lemon curd (next to spreading on my toast in the morning) is to make Lemon Gingerbread trifle. Thank you for another great video
Great tip! That trifle sounds fabulous.
@@RoseRedHomestead I meant to mention. I just freeze mine. It freezes really well and when thawed out...its still smooth as when i put it in. I only freeze it cause i use it almost daily and didnt want to waste my canning lids.
@@lynsmith2698 That sounds great. I had read that it does freeze well, so I am glad to hear that indeed it does!
I have never had lemon curd, but I have lots of eggs. After watching several videos, I'm going to use your recipe. Thank you for sharing. You are a ray of sunshine.
Thank you! Enjoy that lemon curd. We love it!
Breakfast parfaits - awesome!!
Thanks.
My son tells me that you can soak fruits and fresh vegetables in a quart of water with a couple tsp of baking soda and that will remove the wax and pesticides. My mom used to make lemon curd to serve over fresh, still warm gingerbread as a dessert. So delicious
Looks delicious!
Oh perfect timing. Thank You!! 💖
So glad! You are welcome.
Thank you for sharing. Great video. I would like to see more dehydrating experiments.
I have done several videos on dehydrating, but I can surely do more. I will work on that.
I have to say I absolutely love all your videos.
I was wondering can you,or have you dehydrated lemon curd? I don't have a freeze dryer, but I do have a dehydrator.
Thank you for all you do.
I love this soooo much! My grandma would make this with my sister and me when we would sleep over. It was such a treat! thank you!
You are so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it.
“So what’s the probability of that “? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you for getting that joke! Not everyone does.
I absolutely adore lemon curd and it is so expensive! Lemons and limes are staples in my kitchen, so, I will definitely be whipping up a batch of lemon curd (I wonder if I can make lime curd as well). Unfortunately, I don’t own a dehydrator, so I guess I will have to “sacrifice” by sharing and consuming what I make within three or four months. In your words: “oh dear!” Thanks so much for showing us how to make this delicious treat! ❤
Sounds great! My guess is that you can make lime as ell.
Thank you very much for this video lemon curd is the bomb.
You are very welcome.
Put the lemon curd and Greek yogurt in piping bags and you can fill a glass without any smudges to make a parfait.
Great video! Just a tip... You can use a piping bag to get the yogurt and curd in without smearing the glass... Bonus is you can create different designs!
Fabulous tip! Thanks for sharing.
Looks delicious 💜
Thanks! Jim
Everything you do is so awesome I just love watching your videos I don't can I don't make bread but I love your videos and very interesting Elizabeth from Houston Texas
Thanks so much 😊
Loved your story about rose red. So sweet. My daughter and I are going to make the lemon curd this weekend. Thank you!
You are weelcome.
Beautiful story
Oh so yummy! I absolutely love you and your videos. I especially love your attention to safety.
Thank you so much!
Oh! I love your and Jim’s love story! I just love you guys!
Wow! What a sacrifice you have had to do!!! Bon Apetite!!! My dear friend makes this!! To die for!
LOL--And those parfaits never made it to the next day. We devoured them that afternoon!
@@RoseRedHomestead Bravo! That was a hard one to guess!!🤣🤣🤣🤣💕!
I love lemon curd with gingerbread. I have never thought of canning it.
I just made this...I love you!
I so much enjoy watching you. If I were younger I would sign up for your classes. I live in PA so I would have to move.
Wow, thank you!
Fabulous. Thank you! ❤️❤️
Glad you enjoyed it!
Oh YUMMMMM!!! I LOVE lemon curd on top of cream cheese on a bagel!!! 💕🌸💕
I can't wait to try this recipe! Lemon curd is my favorite.
Are those princess house glasses? I used sell princess house and love it! Own way too much of it. Cathy
Oh how I would love a freeze dryer!!! That is my fav dessert by far!!🥰❤️🙏🏻🇨🇦
I love your show funny thing is we look alike and you remind me of grandma she was a teacher i just love your show
Thank you so much.
Your roses are gorgeous like yourself!
Thank you! 😊
Looks delightful. Can’t wait to try it.
Hope you enjoy! Thanks for watching.
Thank you for this video. I wouldn't have thought about freeze drying it, but will definite do it. I'll be making the curd with a monkfruit sugar substitute and probably make the parfaits using my nut and seed (Keto) granola.
Sounds yummy! Thanks for watching.
I want to know that too.
Thanks Nancy for asking. Keto is awesome.
I was wondering if monkfruit sweetener would be safe for canning with - love all your science info - I am a retired elementary science teacher 🤗
@@MM-oc3sb I don’t know, but I do know many people use different sweeteners for jams (using no-sugar pectins). I would call my local extension office before trying it. I’m going to freeze dry it, so I’m not too concerned about it. If sugar is required for preservation, it might not work. I did find keto recipes for lemon curd online using sweeteners, but none had been tested for canning.
Hello ! ..You Both ! Pam My Teacher & Jim the Cameraman ! 🤩🤗 Oh ! ...That's Fun To LEARN Good Things With You ! . It's Always Interesting ..To Watch Your Videos ! 👍..I L💗VE IT ! ...&. I Saw the Good Products You Work With ! 👍 Thank You So Much. ! .🥰 ..From Downtown Montreal ⚜️🇨🇦 ....👋👋👋🤗 🤩 🥰💞💞💞 ..
Thanks so much!
Awesome!
Thanks.
I'm looking forward to making this here. (Oh hey! I'm from Wyoming, born and raised. So homesick, living in middle Tennessee.)
Can't wait to make this. Lemon is 1 of my very favorite flavors
Blessings, julie
My lemon curd recipe says to pressure can 10 minutes at 10 lbs. I never thought of freeze drying it. That will be next on the list since our lemon trees are loaded this year
Thank you Rose, I wish there was a search option for the comments so we don't ask questions already discussed somewhere.
My grandfather always called my grandmother Red as well. 😊
Really helpful ❤
I make a lot of macarons so I have lots of egg yolks! My lemon tree has amazing lemons also. I make huge batches of curd and give to friends and neighbors! Loved your explanation of the ph and timing for the different preparations!
I am sure you know you can substitute egg yolks for some of the eggs as well. You are so fortunate to have a lemon tree--they don't grow here.
Oh my...a very sweet and special friend calls me "Red" ❤️😪
My Mother always washed lemons etc in soapy water - a friend of mine lived in Brazil in the '90s & stated they were mandated to wash their produce in white vinegar. Great video - love lemon anything! (My Dad loved lemon meringue pie.) 🙏
Thanks for sharing! White vinegar as a wash is a great idea.
I wouldn’t be able to wait until breakfast! I love lemon curd.😋
You could always have for snacks during the day.
LOOKS VERY GOOD!!
It was good, and we ate it that afternoon as a snack instead of waiting for breakfast the next morning.
Beautiful. Thanks for sharing
You are so welcome.
Beautiful color to add to your pantry! Next to your plum sauce...gorgeous!
Swedish pancakes would also be good. We usually make fresh orange butter. So yummy!
Orange butter sounds wonderful! Great idea--thanks.
Wonderful💜💜💜🌹
I love lemon curd and don't worry about the pleasantries of fixing anything with it. I can eat it right out of the jar. I was so excited to see this video, one question, if I am going to make the lemon curd to be freeze dried, I don't have to worry about the litmus test, correct? I am a newbie to all of this and am still learning. Thank you both for all you do!
Can a regular Dehydrater work for making lemon curd powder. Don’t have a freeze dryer nor know anyone who does. Thanks for all your videos. Love the way you use science in your teaching.
Just, Wow! Thank you! Yum.
You are so welcome!
Love your presentations.
Glad you like them! Thank you.
My mouth Is watering. 👄
