Blueberry Lemon Tart

Step 1

In the bowl of a food processor, combine the sugar and lemon zest. Pulse to mince the zest, and then process until the zest is as fine as the sugar. Add the lemon juice, egg yolks and salt and process 10 seconds. With the machine running, pour in the melted butter. Transfer the mixture to a double boiler and cook over low heat until thickened. Cool and refrigerate.
