Fresh Orange Curd image

This fresh citrus filling will need to be started a day ahead because it must be chilled for 8 hours. You can substitute refrigerated orange juice for fresh; however, squeezing navel oranges only takes about 15 minutes and makes all the difference. I have not tried this curd. I'm posting this for safe keeping. I found this recipe in Southern Living magazine.
