Ingredients:

  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 2 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 1/3 cups orange juice
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 2 tsp orange zest
  • pinch of salt

Directions:

  1. Combine sugar and cornstarch in a 3-qt. saucepan; gradually whisk in orange juice. Whisk in egg. Bring to a boil; boil, whisking constantly, 3 to 4 minutes.
  2. Remove from heat; whisk in butter, zest, and salt. Place heavy-duty plastic wrap directly on curd (to prevent a film from forming), and chill 8 hours. Store leftovers in refrigerator up to 3 days.
