Lime confectioner's custard (pastry cream) (Slideshow version)

Lime confectioner's custard (pastry cream) : Photo of step #26

Stage 13/13 : 2 min.

For a smoother cream, you can whisk in 30 g butter, cut into small pieces.

Your lime confectioner's custard is now ready. Cover with a lid or, better still, cover with plastic film until needed.

Remarks

For an even more marked flavour, mix the caster sugar with half the zest the day before and leave covered until needed.

The amount of lime juice is quite approximate, so adjust to suit your taste.
