This citrus curd is a component of the pastry chef Claudia Fleming's meringue-topped blood-orange curd cake, but you could make it on its own for a festive spread for layer or pound cakes or scones. The curd will keep, refrigerated, for a few days.

- Whisk in butter. Strain curd through a fine mesh sieve. Chill at least 2 hours before using. Curd can be made up to 3 days in advance.
