LEMON PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly butter a 2 quart shallow dish such an 9 inch square baking pan and set aside. Beat the butter until soft then gradually add the sugar, beating until well blended. Beat in the yolks one at a time, then add the milk, salt, flour, lemon zest and juice and beat to mix thoroughly. (Don't worry if the mixture looks curdled). Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they form soft peaks. Then lighten the lemon egg mixture with 1/4 of the beaten egg whites, then fold the remaining egg whites into this lightened batter. Turn this mixture into the prepared baking pan and set it in a larger baking pan. Pour in enough boiling water to come half way up the sides of the baking dish with the pudding and bake for 50 minutes to an hour. The custard will separate into a soft custardlike mixture on the bottom and a cakier spongy like texture on the top. (If the top begins to brown after 35 minutes of baking loosely cover the top with buttered foil.) Serve warm or chilled with or without whipped cream.

LEMON PUDDING

Steps:

• Open and sterilize 8 eggshells:
• Carefully remove and discard top third of each eggshell by tapping around egg with a knife, then gently prying off top. Reserve 3 yolks in a bowl for lemon curd. If making trompe l'oeil toasts, reserve 3 whole eggs in another bowl. Reserve remaining whites and yolks for another use.
• With a small knife, tear any membrane remaining in bottoms of eggshells. Cover shells with 2 inches cold water in a 3-quart saucepan and add vinegar. Simmer over moderate heat, gently stirring occasionally and skimming off any debris, 15 minutes. Carefully transfer shells with a slotted spoon to a rack to cool. Wipe shells inside and out gently with a dampened paper towel to clean completely.
• Make lemon pudding:
• Whisk together cornstarch, sugar, and a pinch of salt in a 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan, then whisk in half-and-half until smooth. Bring to a boil over moderate heat, whisking constantly, then boil, whisking constantly, 2 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in lemon juice and butter, then transfer pudding to a metal bowl. Set bowl in a larger bowl of ice and cold water and stir frequently until cold, about 10 minutes. Transfer pudding, covered, to refrigerator (reserve ice water).
• Make lemon curd:
• Whisk together zest, lemon juice, sugar, and yolks in a 1- to 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan. Add butter and cook over moderately low heat, whisking frequently, until curd is thick enough to hold marks of whisk and first bubbles appear on surface, about 4 minutes.
• Force lemon curd through a fine-mesh sieve into another metal bowl, scraping bottom of sieve, then transfer to ice bath and stir frequently until cold. Cover surface of curd with wax paper and chill in refrigerator until ready to serve.
• Assemble eggs:
• Arrange eggshells in an empty egg carton or eggcups. Spoon about 2 tablespoons lemon pudding into each eggshell and make a small well in center. Transfer lemon curd to a plastic bag, pressing out excess air. Snip off 1 corner of bag to create a 1/4-inch opening. Twisting bag firmly just above curd, pipe about 1 tablespoon into center of each egg to form "yolk." Serve puddings in shells with spoons, and with trompe l'oeil toasts if making.
