Whole Lemon Tart
(smitten kitchen)
Recipe from: Gini
“I am a slowly–growing home cook extraordinaire, and last year I decided I was going to tackle dough for tarts. I experimented and grew frustrated, before discovering the amazing unshrinkable tart dough by Deb of smitten kitchen. Excellent. Dough conquered. Now what to bake in it? This was around Easter and I’d been given the assignment of bringing dessert to my in–laws’ Easter dinner. Lemons are Easter–egg–colored, so I decided to try Deb’s Whole Lemon Tart.
Not only was the tart crust perfectly perfect, so was this knockout lemon tart that used something called Meyer lemons. I almost didn’t use them because seriously, what’s the diff? A lemon’s a lemon. Was I ever wrong! My husband’s famously–finicky grandma, with her famously–unfiltered opinions of people, still raves about that lemon tart, so now I have to make one every year. And I certainly don’t mind. WIN!
I am going to explore your library of recipes next…hopefully you have some on preserving Meyers, because I really want to buy a huge box and keep these on hand all year. Thanks for the opportunity!”

Meyer Lemon Semifreddo
Recipe from: Pola P.
“I had this semifreddo at a restaurant and got the recipe from them, so the quantity is LARGE…it is delicious. Here’s how it goes:”
8 cups heavy cream
4–1/2 cups sugar
3/4 cups water
27 egg yolks
2–1/2 Meyer lemon juice
1/2 cups Meyer lemon zest
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Whip cream to firm peaks and set aside.
Mix sugar with water, bring to a boil, and cover for a couple of minutes to steam sides of pot. Cook to 250° F with a candy thermometer attached to the side of the pot. Be sure to not move the pot or stir the boiling syrup or it will crystallize. If it does, start all over again.
While sugar is cooking, put yolks in kitchen aid mixer and mix over medium speed until light, thick and fluffy.
When sugar syrup is ready, drizzle into egg yolks at slow speed (pour carefully down the side of the bowl to avoid splashing). Once all the syrup is in the bowl, shift mixer to high and mix until the bowl is cool to the touch.
Gently fold the lemon juice, zest, and vanilla to the cream. Once it has been incorporated into the cream, spoon the mixture into a container and freeze.

Meyer Lemon Marmalade
Recipe from: Karen Morss
Site: Lemon Ladies Orchard
“This Meyer lemon marmalade is wonderful on English muffins, scones and toast. It is also fabulous as a glaze for salmon and chicken.”
4 cups sliced Meyer lemons (approx. 2 lbs—6 for slicing plus 4 more for juice)
4 cups water
4 3/4 cups sugar
Halve lemons crosswise and remove seeds. Tie seeds in a cheesecloth bag. Cut each half into four quarters and thinly slice (1/4″). Combine lemons with bag of seeds and water in a 5–quart non–reactive pot and let mixture stand, covered, at room temperature 24 hours.
Bring lemon mixture to a boil over moderate heat. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered for 45 minutes. Skim off foam and remove any seeds that remain floating about.
Stir in 4 Cups sugar and 1 Cup fresh juice and boil over moderate heat, stirring occasionally and skimming off any foam. Taste and add more sugar if necessary. Cook until a teaspoon of mixture dropped on a cold plate gels, about 30 minutes. I use a candy thermometer and cook until it reaches 220 degrees.
Ladle hot marmalade into jars, filling to within 1/4″ inch of top. Wipe rims with dampened cloth and seal jars with lids.
Put jars in a water–bath canner filled with boiling water, to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Boil jars, covered, 5 minutes and transfer to a rack to cool. Yields approx. 6 half–pint jars. Since we are using 9 oz jars, I expect yield to be five jars.
Marmalade will store in a cool, dark place, up to 1 year.
