I love the optimism involved in thinking it will last two weeks! Too, too delicious … that will go in a day or so!

I think the bain-marie is the only way to go when using an Aga, far too stressful and lots of energetic whisking needed otherwise! Rhubarb curd sounds delicious, if you could blog about that one that would be great, but I know I keep asking you to blog about non-chocolate related things. I am going to have to persuade you to set up another blog for all your other delicious adventures in the kitchen.

Forgot to say, I’m sorry about your 6th chicken – I’m sure it was very distressing. Hope the other live long and well.

Interesting to see your method for making curd. I tried lemon curd many years ago and it turned into scrambled eggs – that was on an aga! More recently I have successfully made rhubarb curd, but then got paranoid about eating it after I had left it for rather too long in the cupboard. Maybe I should give it another go.

It really is, we went on holiday to Madeira last year and found a little cafe specialising in tea which served their homemade scone with homemade lemon curd, it was indeed heaven and as soon as I came home lemon curd was made and scones were baked.

Hi Mangocheeks,
Yes I am tempted to give clementine curd a go, I keep seeing it on blogs, it sounds delicious. It might have to be my next mission when this jar of lemon curd is used up.
