Honey Lemon Custard With Fruit Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Beat eggs in a large bowl. Stir in brown sugar, honey, lemon juice, lemon zest, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Blend in melted butter. Fill tart shells halfway.
• Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until pastry is golden brown, and filling is set.

Steps:

• Beat eggs until light. Add honey and salt. Continue beating until well blended. Scald milk. Slowly pour milk over egg mixture, stirring constantly. Add lemon extract and orange rind. Pour in buttered custard cups. Sprinkle nutmeg on top. Set in a shallow pan filled with an inch of hot water. Bake in a preheated 350°F oven for 45 minutes or until set.

Steps:

• Place ramekins on a rimmed baking sheet. Heat cream, 2 Tbsp. honey, and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat until just beginning to simmer. Scrape in seeds from vanilla bean; add bean. Add lemon peel; remove from heat. Let steep for 5 minutes (cream should register about 160° on an instant-read thermometer). Remove vanilla bean and peel. Gently stir in 5 Tbsp. lemon juice. Divide custard among ramekins and chill to let set for at least 1 hour or, covered, up to 1 day. Whisk remaining 2 Tbsp. honey and 1 Tbsp. lemon juice with rum in a small bowl. Stir in fruit; let sit until juicy, about 1 hour. Serve with custard.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine cream, sugar, lemon zest and salt over medium-high heat. Bring to simmer, stirring frequently to dissolve sugar. Simmer vigorously until mixture thickens slightly, about 4 to 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice. Let sit until mixture has cooled slightly and a skin forms on top, about 20 minutes.
• Stir mixture, then strain through fine-mesh strainer into a measuring cup with a spout; discard zest. Pour mixture evenly into six 6-ounce ramekins or small bowls.
• Refrigerate, uncovered, until set, at least 3 hours.
• As the custards chill, prepare the strawberry topping: Toss strawberries and sugar in a small mixing bowl. Let fruit macerate at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour, until the sugar is dissolved.
• To serve, top each lemon custard with some strawberry topping and grind black pepper on top.
