Lemon Curd! (vegan)

I picked up a bunch of these Meyer lemons for the first time the other day – they’re a hybrid between lemons & mandarin oranges, and they taste wonderful (:

I’ve taken to eating them straight, but really, they’re highly favoured for use in deserts…so I came up with a recipe for vegan lemon curd!

I just mixed together these ingredients:

• 1 tbsp agar-agar
• 1/2 cup soy milk
• 1 tbsp sweetener
• generous pinch of saffron
• 1 whole Meyer Lemon (just the juice haha)
• 1 tbsp glutinous rice flour

I heated them in a non-stick pot on the stove top at low heat, stirring until it thickened…and that’s about it!

I haven’t had lemon curd in a long time because it’s normally heavy on eggs and butter, so this was a real treat. I started out eating it by the spoonful, but it’s soo amazing on toast 😀
