Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 cup tangerine juice
1/3 cup lemon juice
2 tangerines -- grated zest only
1/4 pound butter
4 oz sugar
8 egg yolks






This makes a delicious filling for cakes and tarts and can also be used
as a spread for biscuits, scones or croissants.

COMBINE THE JUICES, ZEST, SUGAR and butter in a saucepan and bring to a
boil over medium heat. Beat the yolks in a bowl until liquid. Beat 1/4 of
the boiling liquid into the yolks and return the remaining liquid to a boil
over low heat. Beat the yolk mixture into the boiling liquid and continue
beating until it thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Do not allow the curd
to boil or it will scramble. Pour into a clean bowl, cover surface with
plastic wrap and chill.
