Tips and Hacks
Don't throw pasta up against the wall to see if it's cooked. This is a myth and makes the wall really hard to clean.
Pasta is al dente when it starts to float in the boiling water.

Sugar
Lemon Juice
Directions:
Combine the eggs, egg yolks and sugar in a heat proof bowl and whisk until smooth and the sugar is dissolved.
Add the lemon juice and lemon zest and mix.
Place the bowl over a pot of boiling water or in the top of a double boiler and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until the mixture thickens.
This mixture will not curdle, so you don't have to worry about it overcooking a little.
Remove the bowl from the boiling water and add the butter.
Stir until the better is melted.
If your lemon curd is not totally smooth, strain it through a fine sieve or mesh strainer, it will be fine.
This will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 months.

Instead of using a bowl for your veggie dip; use a hollowed out red cabbage.
