I zoomed in on this recipe rather quickly after the cookbook for the UK portion of the ZWT 6 was posted. Yellow/white fleshed grapefruit replaced pink and really there isn't anything better in this world on shortbread but a slather of this luscious curd. Easy directions, too. Curd took close to one half hour to thicken on our gas range. fyi Reviewed for ZWT 6.

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
