[Sca-cooks] lemon curd

[Stefan li Rous]

As I was saving the recipe mentioned here for lemon curd, I found 
another message on lemon curd posted to this list a while back. Since I 
thought some of you might also be making this lemon curd, I thought I'd 
go ahead and post this.

And since I don't remember the answer to her question, I'll ask it 
again. Does anyone have any information about when lemon curd was first 
made? Is it with our period?
