Bright, tangy, and impossibly silky, this passionfruit curd is the kind of thing you'll want to spread on absolutely everything — toast, scones, pavlova, or a spoon held directly over the jar. The flavor is intensely tropical and floral, with a richness from butter and egg yolks that makes it feel genuinely luxurious. Because the ingredient list is so clean and focused, there's nothing hidden to worry about — just fruit, eggs, butter, sugar, and salt working together beautifully. The double-boiler method keeps the eggs from scrambling and gives you full control over that perfect, spoonable consistency. Whisking in cold butter cubes at the end is what gives the curd its glossy, velvety finish — don't skip that step. Straining through a fine-mesh sieve keeps the texture ultra-smooth, though leaving the seeds in adds a lovely rustic bite if that's your preference. Once it's chilled and set, you'll have a jar of something that tastes far more impressive than the effort it took to make.

Fill a medium saucepan with about 2 inches of water and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Set a heatproof bowl over the saucepan, making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water.
Add the passionfruit pulp, sugar, eggs, egg yolks, and salt to the bowl. Whisk until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth and uniform in color, about 1 minute.
