First, I'm not a certified health professional, but I can safely say that "healthy" might be a bit of a stretch for this lemon curd. Citrus curd is a delightful addition to many dishes, but it's typically made with both butter and a decent amount of sugar. So, much like jam, it's more of a meal enhancer than the main event on the health scale. Since we're making it from scratch using whole food ingredients,it's not all gloom and doom! For instance, this lemon curd contains a bit of protein from the eggs, some vitamin C from the lemons, and it's not loaded with artificial additives or preservatives. I'll call that a win! So, while lemon curd might not be a bona fide health food, it’s definitely welcome as part of a balanced diet. When you do indulge, savor every citrusy, creamy spoonful because that's what makes it so special!
