lemon curd
Tart yellow preserve
Lemon curd is a thick, creamy spread made from lemon juice, sugar, butter, and eggs, cooked until smooth and spreadable.
It has an intense sweet-tart flavor and silky texture.
Used as a filling for tarts and cakes, spread on scones or toast, or eaten by the spoonful: She topped the pavlova with lemon curd.
