- I'm making a treat for my grandchildren, y'all.
0:04
I had this request for my lemon curd pudding,
0:11
and I have found that my grandchildren like tart things.
0:17
Maybe that's why they like their grandma. (laughing)
0:22
Okay, so I've got the zest,
0:25
and the juice from two fat lemons,
0:28
and I'm just finishing this up.
0:31
I would highly recommend you zesting it though
0:36
They're just easier to man handle.
0:39
I am going to take my egg whites,
0:45
I've got four egg whites,
0:46
and I'm gonna beat them until they're stiff.
0:54
Stiff as I can get 'em.
0:56
And just for a hint y'all
1:00
your egg whites will stiff,
1:03
will be stiff better if at room temperature.
1:08
So just for a little FYI.
1:16
Those look nice and stiff.
1:19
And I actually did a little scoop of sugar,
1:24
and add it to 'em because
1:25
I can't think of egg whites beating better
1:30
if they've got a little sugar in 'em.
1:32
So those are nice and stiff.
1:34
Now we're gonna take our sugar
1:39
that I stole a little scoop from,
1:41
I'm gonna take my flour,
1:44
and I'm gonna take my salt,
1:46
and I'm gonna use a whisk
1:49
to just, it's almost like a sifting method.
1:54
So we're gonna use this whisk,
1:58
and we're just gonna stir, stir, stir
2:00
until all the flour has disappeared,
2:03
and worked its way into the sugar and salt
2:09
'cause we don't want our lemon curd pudding lumpy.
2:19
That looks real good.
2:20
Now I'm gonna add, slowly add our half and half,
2:27
and we're using two cups.
2:32
I don't wanna pour it all at one time,
2:36
I want to kind of slowly work my liquid in
2:41
so I can get any remaining lumps of flour
2:45
that may be present in our bowl.
2:49
We're almost there y'all.
2:59
All right, now we're gonna add our lemon juice
3:03
from our four lemons that we zested.
3:08
This is gonna be nice and tart for those children.
3:13
All right, now let's see.
3:16
I'm gonna take this bowl,
3:18
and move my eggs over here.
3:22
And ya'll our eggs, our chickens, are doing so good.
3:27
Those are some working sisters out there.
3:31
All right, I just wanna beat these up real good.
3:38
All right, so now I'm fixing to throw this whisk aside
3:49
after I get these eggs in there,
3:54
and then I'll be relying on just my spatula, this,
4:06
Those eggs are gonna make it firm up,
4:10
and make it so creamy.
4:19
Now, I want every bit of that yolk, dag gommmit.
4:25
All right, now I'm gonna take my lemon zest,
4:30
and I don't use my whisk once I do my zest
4:35
because most of my zest winds up caught in the whisk,
4:39
and I don't like that.
4:41
I want every bit of zest to go into our dish.
4:47
So that's why I changed utensils,
4:52
'cause that zest just gives it a kick like no other.
4:59
Okay, now last but not least
5:03
I'm gonna fold our stiffly beaten egg whites into our cream.
5:14
I mean these just beat up beautifully.
5:18
Okay, so you don't wanna stir your egg whites in,
5:21
you wanna just fold them.
5:23
And that movement is to go down on one side,
5:28
Up and over until it's all incorporated.
5:34
All right and we're gonna bake this in an eight by two.
5:37
Eight by eight by two.
5:43
I'm going to butter my dish.
5:56
Every little piece of butter helps y'all.
6:00
All right so here we go,
6:01
we're just gonna transfer our custard.
6:13
Maybe just a little last minute folding.
6:18
The recipe says an eight by eight,
6:21
and this is gonna be TIT, tight. (laughs)
6:36
He's recuperating from a hip replacement surgery,
6:40
and so that's what I hear all day long, ugh.
6:46
- [Theresa] Do you want me to (indistinct).
6:52
Ooh, that looks so pretty.
6:54
We're gonna pour our water
6:57
about halfway up of our dish.
7:06
And then we're gonna put it in the oven,
7:08
and then we're gonna bake it for about 25 or 30 minutes.
7:16
Does that look about halfway up, Eddie?
7:20
- [Theresa] Maybe a little bit more.
7:22
Just tel me when, 'cause my distances are not good.
7:28
- [Eddie] Yeah, there you go.
7:30
- [Theresa] (indistinct)
7:32
- Thank you, thank you, thank you.
7:34
So we're gonna bake that at 350,
7:39
for about 25 to 30 minutes,
7:43
and it's gonna be such a yummy treat.
7:50
And I kind of hate to cut into it it's so pretty,
8:13
I wanna get all my due. (laughs)
8:19
Oh my goodness, haven't made this in forever.
8:30
It's so wonderful and creamy,
8:33
it's just like eating a lemon meringue pie
8:48
Y'all try it, I hope you like it.
8:52
And just like always I'm trying to send y'all love,
8:57
and some best dishes.
