Berry Parfaits with Angel Food Croutons

If you read my previous post, you read about this in my list of things I love making with lemon curd. This dessert is amazing. The first time I made it, it pulled me out of a jam when I was making the food for my sister-in-laws Ladybug Baby Shower. I had planned to make a lemon loaf that I cut into small rectangles and dipped into lemony white chocolate. What could possibly go wrong? Well, if you know anything about white chocolate, you know a lot can go wrong. Once I dipped those cakes things went from bad to worse. I tried to dab some raspberry jelly on the top and it turned into a molten, lemon chocolate raspberry mess that fed no one but the trash can.
I see in my mom's fridge an angel food cake she had on hand (totally random, right?) and I have some lemon curd in the fridge. Add some fresh berries and whipped cream and you have a stunning dessert.

Lemon Curd

It's that time of year! Hardly time to take a breath, much less post about food. We have been without the internet in our home since we moved back in September, and honestly, it has been the last thing on my list. It should have been a bit closer to the top since we apparently rely on it more than we realized. That being said, I have fallen far behind in my cheese making challenge/class, but I have already prepared to catch up! I have all my ingredients lined up and I am going to attempt to make cream cheese, feta, and mozzarella in the next few weeks.
For today, I have a lovely post about lemon curd. This is not just something that fancy English people spread on scones at tea time. It is absolutely amazing, and you can make a giant batch a freeze it, for use whenever you please. I would recommend doing that, instead of making little batches for a particular recipe.
