Creamy, airy lemon custard is a light and refreshing finale to a heavy Yom Tov meal. Can be served alone, with a simple garnish as pictured here, or layered with fruit or Pesach crumbs in parfait glasses.

I’m not medically supposed to have much citrus, so guess what I am attracted to.
Might use orange flavorings and lemon juice
