Expert Tips

Showcase any combination of berries and sliced fruit on this tart. Try strawberries and blueberries with nectarine or papaya slices. Add a few blackberries for a dramatic color accent. You'll probably need to make two tarts to serve all of your guests!

Lemon curd is a creamy mixture made by cooking lemon juice, sugar, butter and egg yolks until thickened. Look for lemon curd in jars at the supermarket in the jam and jelly section or at gourmet shops.

This recipe was wonderful. It was very easy to make and it is so refreshing on a hot summer day! I used fresh strawberries on top and wasn't sure how it would blend with the lemon, but it was great! I wasn't sure where to find lemon curd but, I found it in the specialty food section of my local Kroger store. I will definately make this again.
