Lemon Curd and Lemon Curd Tarts.
When I was a lad, Sunday was the day that the relatives came to tea and as I have mentioned before, my mum used to put on a spread, all of it home made. In those days most people just didn’t have the money to buy shop bought, biscuits, fancy cakes and pies. Instead they made the pennies stretch by baking their own. Mind it was a little easier then as most of our mothers didn’t work or those that did only worked part of the day, which left them some free time to bake.
Anyway enough of the waffle, I’ll get back to what I was saying. Mum used to do all this baking and the table was filled with, plate pies, both sweet and savoury, scones, biscuits little jam and lemon curd tarts and more. Now I can’t say that they were my favourites, because I liked just about everything on the table, but put it this way, I always ate three or four of those little lemon curd tarts.
