Can I use whole eggs instead of egg yolks?
Although our recipe calls for just egg yolks, you can use whole eggs if you like. Other curd recipes use whole eggs. It will be lighter than when using egg yolks only. The yolks give your curd that extra creamy and thick texture. You could also use a combination of the two. Try two egg yolks and two whole eggs or three yolks and one whole egg.
