When Life Gives You Lemons

Kafé Zolo’s Lemon Curd Cheesecake

We’ve all been there. Life does indeed give us lemons sometimes. In the real world we are overwhelmed with lemons (precarious predicaments) and often have nary a clue as how to deal with them. In the food world, however, lemons are a blessing: “When life gives you lemons . . .” - make Lemonade, or Kafé Zolo’s Lemon Curd Cheesecake, or Lemon Meringue Pie, or Lemon Date Bars, or Lemon Mafaldine with Shrimp, or Soy-Lemon Tofu, or Baked Lemon, Feta and Artichoke Dip. Let’s learn to embrace our lemons!

I’m going to make it easy for myself and rip out a page (not literally, of course) from Kafé Zolo’s cookbook for the Lemon Curd Cheesecake recipe. If you don’t have the cookbook, please send me a message and I’ll let you know how to purchase one.

This recipe is so easy! I’ve shared it with many a café patron and friend! The results, while varied, have always been spectacular! Seems like everyone likes to put their very own creative spin on a recipe, which is what recipes are all about! Try it! Spin it! You’ll love it!

What’s your favorite lemon recipe? I would love to hear from you. Sharing is caring!
