About Lemon curd pastry

Lemon Curd Pastry is a delectable treat rooted in British cuisine, known for its balance of tangy citrus and rich buttery flavors. It typically consists of flaky puff or shortcrust pastry filled with lemon curd, a mixture of fresh lemon juice, sugar, egg yolks, and butter. The vibrant lemon curd provides a burst of vitamin C from the lemons, though its nutritional benefits are balanced by the addition of sugar and butter, which contribute to its sweetness and creamy texture. While the pastry offers a satisfying indulgence, its high calorie and fat content may not make it the most health-conscious choice. Perfect for tea-time or special occasions, Lemon Curd Pastry is cherished for its zesty flavor and melt-in-your-mouth appeal, but moderation is key to enjoying it as part of a balanced diet.
