blood-orange curd

blood-orange curd
  • 3 large eggs
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1/4 cup fresh blood orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons finely grated blood orange zest
  • 1 tablespoon coconut juice
  • 1 stick unsalted butter, softened and cubed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 drop red food coloring, or as desired (optional)


  1. Whisk eggs, egg yolks, and 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar together in a large metal mixing bowl. Whisk in blood orange juice, blood orange zest, and coconut juice.
  2. Bring a pot of water to a simmer. Place the metal mixing bowl with the curd on top of the simmering water. Cook, stirring constantly with a whisk, until curd begins to thicken, 6 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Whisk in butter until melted and well combined. Add vanilla extract and stir thoroughly. Add food coloring and stir to combine.
  3. Pour curd through a fine mesh sieve into individual ramekins or a single small bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator at least 2 hours before serving.
