Ingredients
- 3 lemon
- 5 3/10 oz sugar
- 1 1/10 oz cornflour
- 2 egg
- 1 7/10 cup water
- a pinch salt
Instructions
- 1Zest and juice three lemons into a mixing bowl; if using whole lemon shells, halve the lemons, scoop out the flesh, and squeeze the juice into the bowl, reserving the zest of three additional lemons for later.
- 2Add the sugar, cornflour, and eggs to the lemon mixture and whisk until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
- 3Transfer the mixture to a saucepan, add the water and a pinch of sea salt, and stir to incorporate.
- 4Place the saucepan over medium‑low heat and continuously stir, scraping the bottom and sides, until the mixture thickens, becomes syrupy, and coats the back of a spoon (about 5‑7 minutes).
- 5Remove the pan from the heat and continue stirring for another 30 seconds to finish the cooking process.
- 6Immediately pour the hot pudding into the prepared lemon halves or into small serving glasses.
- 7If any pudding remains, transfer it to additional glasses; any leftover lemon juice can be saved for another use.
- 8Cover the containers and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours, or until the puddings are set and have a smooth, curd‑like texture.
- 9Serve the chilled lemon puddings as they are, or drizzle each with a small amount of good olive oil for a daring, aromatic twist.
