Cream

Description

The recipe won't take much time. I really enjoy making this simple and aromatic cream. I serve it for dessert, especially love to accompany it with raspberries or diced mango. For extra flavor, add a bit of vanilla or alcohol, such as rum, while heating over a water bath. Serve chilled.

Instructions

1. 1

   Step 1

   Combine eggs and egg yolks in a bowl, then add lemon zest, juice, sugar, and salt.

2. 2

   Step 2

   Place the bowl over a double boiler. While the mixture is heating, whisk it vigorously with a whisk. Heat for about 5 minutes, until the mixture reaches a creamy consistency.

3. 3

   Step 3

   Cut the cold butter into cubes. Remove the cream from the heat and add the butter to it. Mix well until the butter is completely melted.

4. 4

   Step 4

   I recommend straining the cream through a sieve to make it as smooth as possible. However, you can skip this step if the consistency is satisfactory to you.

   Step 5

   Before serving, it's best to chill the cream. To do this, transfer it into individual bowls, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for a short time.
