3
Place the saucepan over medium heat. Cook the mixture, whisking constantly, until thickened.
4
Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the butter to the hot mixture.

Notes

The description states that the curd keeps in the refrigerator for up to 7 days and in the freezer for several months. The written description specifies butter with 82% fat; the audio says 32%, but the author separately clarifies in the description that this was a verbal slip in the video and that the correct fat content is 82%.
