It was good hon, and super easy.

Next time, I might add more lemon zest. It had a lovely mild flavour but I think it would be even better with a bit more kick.

If you use it warm and straight off the stove, it's the consistency of a sauce and would be lovely with crepes. It thickened up a little after being chilled in the fridge, kind of like a soft jelly.

If you're going to use it on toast, I'd say add half a tablespoon or so more cornstarch, just to give it more body.
