  • Author: Kimberly
  • Total Time: 105 min
  • Yield: 250 ml / 1 cup 1x

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT
  • blender
  • medium-sized saucepan
  • whisk
  • a bowl into which the medium saucepan fits
  • 2 medium-sized bowls
  • fine sieve
  • sealable container
  • coffee filter

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 limes
  • 250 milliliters cold-pressed coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Wash and dry the limes thoroughly. Put them into the blender. Since coconut oil solidifies below 23°C (73°F), you need to warm it up briefly so it can be poured over the limes in liquid form. Pour the oil into the blender and blend everything on the highest setting until it becomes pastel green and only small pieces of the limes are longer visible.
  2. Pour the mixture from the blender into a medium-sized pot and heat it over medium heat, constantly stirring, to a temperature of about 102°-103°C (215°-217°F). Then, let the mixture cook for the next 20 minutes. Stir only occasionally, making sure the temperature remains steady. This cooking time is essential for all the water to evaporate, allowing the perishable solids to settle at the bottom and the oil to float on top. You’ll know all the water has evaporated when the oil in the pot barely bubbles anymore – so if it’s still bubbling vigorously, keep it simmering.
  3. Once the oil mixture is no longer bubbling, remove the pot from the heat and let it cool a bit. Pour the oil into the fine sieve to catch the coarse particles.
  4. Then, rinse the strainer and hang it over the second medium-sized bowl. Press a coffee filter into the strainer and pour the captured oil into the coffee filter, so that the remaining perishable and coarser particles are caught.
  5. Allow the oil to drip through for about 1 hour or maybe less depending on how many remaining particles are in there. Once all the oil has passed through the coffee filter, transfer the collected amount into a sealable container or directly into an oil bottle. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week. If you want to use it, fill a glass with hot water and place the oil bottle in it for a few minutes so it can liquefy again.

Lime Curd Cheesecake


  • Author: Kimberly
  • Total Time: 3 hrs 40 min + overnight
  • Yield: 16 1x

Description

Recommended Equipment

  • oven
  • springform 28cm / 11”
  • deep baking tray or baking dish that fits the springform
  • food processor
  • microwave (or small saucepan)
  • large mixing bowl
  • whisk
  • aluminum foil
  • small saucepan
  • zest grater

Ingredients

Units Scale

CRUST

  • 200 grams golden Oreo cookies (without cream filling)
  • 100 grams butter

FILLING

  • 600 grams cream cheese
  • 130 grams white sugar
  • 160 grams creme fraiche
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs

LIME CURD

  • 2 limes
  • 85 grams white sugar
  • 40 grams butter
  • 50 grams heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • cold water

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 175°C / 350°F fan-assisted. Fill a deep baking tray or baking dish, large enough to fit your springform, with water. The water should come about halfway up the sides of the springform pan. Set aside.
  2. Carefully twist apart the Oreo cookies and remove the cream filling. Place the cookies in a food processor and pulse until crumbly. Melt the butter in the microwave or in a small saucepan and add it to the cookie crumbs. Mix for about 20 seconds until combined and crumbly. Press this mixture into the bottom of the springform and set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the cream cheese until smooth. Add the sugar and beat until well combined. Mix in the crème fraîche and vanilla extract. Beat in one egg until just combined, then add the second egg and mix until just incorporated. Avoid overmixing to prevent adding too much air to the batter.
  4. Pour the cream cheese filling over the cookie crust in the springform and spread evenly. Place two sheets of aluminum foil on a flat surface and put the springform pan in the center. Fold the foil up around the edges of the pan to prevent water from getting in during the water bath. Place the pan in the water bath and bake on the middle rack of the oven for about 40 minutes. The cheesecake should be set at the edges and slightly wobbly in the center, with no cracks on top.
  5. While the cheesecake bakes, prepare the lime curd. Zest the limes and place the zest in a small saucepan. Juice the limes and add the juice, along with the sugar, to the pot. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then gradually add the butter, stirring until melted. Finally, stir in the cream and bring to a boil. Remove from heat. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and 1.5 tablespoons of water until smooth, then add to the lime mixture. Bring to a boil while stirring, set aside and then let it cool for a bit.
  6. After 40 minutes, turn off the oven and open the door completely. Leave the cheesecake in the cooling oven for 20 minutes to prevent cracking from temperature shock.
  7. The lime curd should be quite firm by now. Stir in about 4-5 tablespoons of cold water until creamy but not too runny. Add more water if needed. Set aside to cool completely.
  8. After 20 minutes, remove the cheesecake from the water bath, discard the foil, and run a sharp knife around the edge to loosen it from the springform. Leave the springform ring on and let the cheesecake cool to room temperature.
  9. Once the cheesecake has cooled, gently spread the lime curd on top. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight. I know it’s a long wait, but it’ll be worth it 😉 Enjoy your cheesecake!
