Ingredients:
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces
Cooking Tips:
- Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor.
- Make sure to use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to prevent the curd from burning.
- Whisk the eggs well before adding them to the mixture to prevent lumps.
Cooking Process:
1. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries burst and the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten. Slowly pour the blueberry mixture into the eggs, whisking constantly.
3. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 10 minutes.
4. Remove from heat and stir in the butter until melted and well combined.
5. Pour the mixture into sterilized jars and seal. Process in a water bath for 10 minutes.
