I made this tart for Easter and everyone was delighted. I am very grateful that you write the amounts in milliliters and grams, because only such measurements make sense to me :).

[@kittyjinxx]

Unsalted or salted butter?

[@icymf3294]

INGREDIENTS: Pastry crust- ▪︎2 Tbsp cream ▪︎1 Egg yolk Mix them ▪︎1+1/4 cup of All purpose flour ▪︎1/4 tsp salt ▪︎1/4 cup of sugar ▪︎1/2 cup cold butter (not frozen) Mix these ingredients by hand then slowly add the cream yolk mix while stirring the entire mixture. Mix the mixture by hand and set in the freezer for 1 hour before poking holes and putting in the oven till lightly golden brown. Lemon curd filling: ☆Mix 4 eggs and 2 yolks in a separate bowl. • In a pot, add 1/2 cup of butter • 1 cup of sugar • Zest of 2 lemons •1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice Now heat it till the mixture bubbles lightly. Then add a little bit of the lemon butter liquid to temper the eggs and later, add in the entire pot to the eggs while continuously stirring. Heat the total mixture till it coats a wooden spoon but make sure to not burn. Strain the mixture and put the filling in the slightly baked tart shell. Then bake the entire tart for 8 minutes until the edges are firm and the centre a little wobbly. Cool it before freezing it for 2 hours.

[@palaceofwisdom9448]

This turned out well, but the crust was a real adventure. Chilling it in the fridge for an hour made it rock hard, which then required it to sit out for 40 minutes more before it could be rolled out. Then it got too soft and kept cracking and sticking. Finally, I just threw it in the tart pan in a ball and pressed it out with my fingertips, which proved ten times easier.

[@StephenSmith-z5j]

Same for me..handmade with bits😂

is it more on the sweet side or the sour side

[@okay_sunshine]

I don't know if you'll see this comment but I made this on the weekend and it is amazing! I've never made a tart before, and this was fool proof. I took it to work to share with colleagues and it was eaten up in a flash. To quote one person "it's as if it's from a cafe!" So I'm beaming. Thank you!!!

[@fatimatasnim3416]

I used this recipe to bake for the first time. It turned out AMAZING and everybody liked it. Thank u so much❤ Note: I didnt have heavy cream at home so instead of using just the yolk, I used the whole egg and a little bit of milk while making the crust. It still turned out good:)

‘Drop of sunshine on the plate’ is the most singular and beautiful way I’ve heard anyone describe a lemon tart 🥺

[@maneshtsaadoon3501]

I made this, and it turned out phenomenal. It looked beautiful, tasted amazing, and while it takes a bit of time cuz you leave this thing to freeze and cook that in advance and such, it's actually really easy to make. My whole family loved it. Will definitely make it again!

[@kittyjinxx]

Did you use unsalted or salted butter?

[@maneshtsaadoon3501]

@ Unsalted butter.

[@jmpond4217]

Hi John, I made the crust last night and left it in the fridge overnight and popped it in the freezer while I made the filling. I served it today at a luncheon and it was such a hit! Simply delicious and oh, so lemony! Thanks for another great recipe!

[@ashehab111]

For a beginner, your simple and easy method has been an encouragement for me to make this delicious tart. I hand one issue with dough, where it just cracked and crumbled as I was trying to spread it with a rolling pin. I think I have exceed the amount of butter since I was eyeballing it. Anyways I got around it by spreading the dough evenly into the tray. Finally the end result was exceptional, as my parents loved it! Next for me, will be your apple tart. Thank you and much appreciated. 😊

[@MarleinRusch]

Based on the video, a summary of ingredients for the dough: - 2 tbsp cream (10ml) - 1 egg yolk - 1.25 cup flour (150g) - 1/4 tsp salt - 1/4 cup sugar (50g) - 1/2 cup butter (113g) ice cold from fridge For the dough consider 1h of fridge time + 30min in freezer + 20 to 30 min in oven.

[@josecamacho3435]

I just made this tart Tonight and it was PHENOMENAL!! The lemon curd was really out of this world!!! The only thing Is if your going to make this dessert…..double the lemon curd recipe. First of all, it’s so GOOD!! And second of all, the recipe says “9 to 10 inch” tart and I used an 11inch one (mybad) and it wasn’t enough. But aside from that….MAKE THIS!! 🤤 Thank you @PreppyKitchen

[@wnygal]

Is it a tart lemon flavor or more sweet lemon? My husband likes lemon deserts really tart.

[@josecamacho3435]

It does have a very nice lemon flavor. You definitely taste it but it’s not too overpowering. It also has a nice creamy flavor as well due to the butter. It’s just an amazing lemon curd. You and your husband will not be disappointed!!! 🍋 😋

[@Coolpoolers]

Just finished baking this for Easter dessert tomorrow. Looks good. Will find out how it tastes tomorrow. I am glad I strained the lemon after cooking as recommended. There were a few little egg thingys in there.

[@太平洋之星-瓦努阿圖]

First time watching your video, and today I happened to bought bottles of fresh lime juice (with lots of lime pulp!) So immediately after seeing your lemon tart video, I was so tempted to try! And I just did the whole thing but swapping out butter for extra virgin Coconut oil, with a different amount of coconut oil of course. The crust turned out to be well, color-wise, and the curd smells good, hahaha It's out of the oven like 10 minutes ago, and it has to be chilled for a while before I can cut it. ONLY after eating it, I could tell how it really turned out. 😂 Looking forward the moment of cutting and eating

[@太平洋之星-瓦努阿圖]

here is the update, it is INCREDIBLE! The crust, although it was thicker after baking, it turned out to be so crispy and crunchy, so many times better than the lemon tarts I had in France, I am so impressed! With around /4 reduced sugar, I still find the lemon tart sufficiently sweet, and the lemon taste is outstanding! By the way, I added 1.4 g of salt towards the very end, right before pouring the mixture into the crust, I think the salt helped with the flavoring too. Maybe you could consider some slight improvement on this recipe, in the future :) Thank you for making the video instructions! It's inspiring~
