Thursday Cottage Ginger Curd – a velvety ginger cream inspired by British tradition
There are flavors that capture the imagination from the very first spoonful. Thursday Cottage’s Ginger Curd is just such a dessert cream—smooth, velvety, and full of the aroma of fresh ginger. Its flavor combines the creaminess of eggs and butter with citrusy freshness and a warm, slightly spicy note of ginger. The result is incredibly sensual: sweet, creamy, and distinctly aromatic.
As soon as you open the jar, you’re greeted by a scent reminiscent of a blend of freshly whipped cream, lemon curd, and spicy ginger. The texture is thick and silky—exactly what you’d expect from a true British curd.
A taste like a dessert from days gone by
In the mouth, the cream melts almost like eggnog —rich, buttery, and delicately eggy, with a pleasant citrus freshness. After a moment, the ginger emerges: warm, aromatic, and slightly warming. This note doesn’t dominate, but beautifully cuts through the sweetness and makes every subsequent spoonful even more intriguing.
It is this harmony that makes Ginger Curd taste like both a classic dessert and an elegant English curd.
What exactly is curd?
In British cuisine, curd is a traditional fruit cream made from eggs, butter, sugar, and fruit juice. The most famous is, of course, lemon curd, which has been appearing on tables during afternoon tea since the 19th century.
Curd is made by slowly heating eggs, sugar, and butter with fruit until a silky, creamy consistency is achieved. The result is something between a dessert cream, a jam, and a luxurious spread for bread.
Ginger Curd is a more aromatic, spicy take on this tradition—with as much as 10% real ginger.
