Critical Success Points

  • Mixing lemon juice, sugar and starch off the heat (prevents lumps).
  • Cooking over medium‑low heat without boiling (preserves texture).
  • Incorporating egg yolks off the heat (prevents curdling).
  • Complete cooling before adding mascarpone (prevents separation).
  • Gentle folding of the whipped cream (maintains aeration).

Safety Warnings

  • The hot mixture can cause burns; handle the saucepan with oven mitts.
  • Use pasteurized eggs or cook the mixture to 75 °C to eliminate any salmonella risk.
