Pure Butter Lemon Meringue Madeleines

Steps

1. Mix the powdered sugar with the lemon juice for the glaze and dip your madeleines in it. Place them on baking paper and bake for 5 minutes at 180 °C. Then let them cool so that the glaze can dry.
2. For the lemon curd, pour the lemon juice into a saucepan and mix the eggs, powdered sugar, and cornstarch in a bowl. Heat the lemon juice and pour some of it over the egg and powdered sugar mixture. Return the mixture to the saucepan and whisk until it reaches a thick, creamy texture. Remove from the heat, add the butter, and stir until you have a smooth lemon curd.
3. For the meringues, heat the sugar and water in a saucepan until the syrup thickens. Beat the egg whites and pour in the syrup in a thin stream. Continue beating until the meringue has cooled.
4. To assemble, pipe the meringue onto your madeleines and briefly brown it with a blowtorch to color it. Then pipe the lemon curd on top and decorate with some lemon zest.
