Cannabis Lemon Curd is a delightful and easy-to-make infused treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is a versatile ingredient that can be used to add a tangy and sweet flavor to a variety of dishes. This recipe is perfect for those who love to experiment in the kitchen with cannabis-infused recipes.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup cannabis butter
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest

Going Step by Step

  1. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the sugar and cannabis butter until light and fluffy.
  2. Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition.
  3. Whisk in the lemon juice and lemon zest until well combined.
  4. Transfer the mixture to a heatproof bowl and place over a pot of simmering water. Make sure the bowl is not touching the water.
  5. Cook the mixture, whisking continuously, until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 10-15 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat and strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl.
  7. Cover the surface of the lemon curd with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.
  8. Give it a try and enjoy!

Tips

  • Make sure to continuously whisk the mixture to prevent it from curdling or burning.
  • When straining the mixture, make sure to press down on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
  • Store the lemon curd in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

We are sure you are a perfect cook! Nonetheless, do remember to pay attention to the amount of Cannabis Lemon Curd you consume: it should always be modified based on the strength of your product and the potency you desire. Dosing homemade edibles can be tricky, so it is strongly recommended to start with one portion of a serving. After one or two hours, listen to your body and decide whether to consume more. It is not recommended to drive or operate any machinery when taking edibles. Use responsibly!
