Lemon curd is one of those shining stars that can bring brightness to any day. Rich in the yin consolidating sour flavor, and full of yin nourishing eggs and fat, this is a winter treat that nourishes physically and emotionally. Simply dollop it on scones, oatmeal, yoghurt, or biscuits for a livelier morning. Or you can turn it into dessert by spreading it into a baked tart shell and allowing it to set in the fridge for a few hours.

If you need something to do with extra turkey, this is an excellent Western take on congee. Congee in Eastern medicine is a powerful food to help rehabilitate digestion after a long term illness, after giving birth, or after overindulging. You can easily substitute the turkey for chicken in this recipe.
