1
To make the lemon curd, add enough water to a medium saucepan (or the bottom of a double boiler) to come about 1 inch up the side.
-
2
Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
-
3
Put the egg yolks and sugar in a medium nonreactive metal bowl and whisk until smooth and pale yellow, about 1 minute.
-
4
Add the lemon zest and juice and whisk until smooth.
-
5
Once the water reaches a simmer, reduce the heat under the pan to low and place the bowl with the egg mixture in it on top; the bowl should not touch the water.
-
6
Cook, whisking constantly, until the curd thickens, is light yellow, and coats the back of a spoon, about 8 minutes.
-
7
Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter a piece at a time, allowing each addition to melt before adding the next.
-
8
Transfer to a clean bowl and press a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the curd.
-
9
Refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours or overnight.
-
10
To make the blueberry compote, combine 1 pint of the blueberries, the sugar, and the lemon zest and juice in a medium saucepan over high heat.
-
11
Bring to a boil and cook until the sugar has melted and the berries are soft, 5 minutes.
-
12
Stir together the cornstarch and 1 1/2 tablespoons water in a small bowl.
-
13
Stir into the blueberries and cook until thickened, about 1 minute.
-
14
Remove from the heat and add the creme de cassis and the remaining 1 pint blueberries.
-
15
Let cool to room temperature.
-
16
The compote can be covered and refrigerated for up to 1 day.
-
17
To make the crepes, whisk together the eggs, yolks, and granulated sugar in a medium bowl until smooth.
-
18
Add the limoncello and milk and mix until combined.
-
19
Add the flour and mix until just smooth.
-
20
Stir in the butter.
-
21
Cover the bowl and let sit for 30 minutes at room temperature or refrigerate for up to 4 hours.
-
22
Line a large plate with parchment or wax paper.
-
23
Heat a crepe pan or an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking spray.
-
24
Add 3 tablespoons crepe batter to the skillet and immediately tilt and swirl the skillet to spread the batter evenly over the bottom.
-
25
Cook until the center of the crepe is cooked through and the edges are lightly browned, about 1 minute.
-
26
Gently flip and cook the other side for 20 seconds.
-
27
Invert the crepe onto the prepared plate.
-
28
Repeat with the remaining batter, spraying the pan with cooking spray and placing parchment paper between crepes.
-
29
The crepes can be made 1 day in advance, covered, and refrigerated.
-
30
Preheat the oven to 325F.
-
31
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
32
Place the crepes, pale side up, on a flat surface and spread about 3 tablespoons of the lemon curd down the center of each crepe.
-
33
Using a slotted spoon, top the curd with some of the blueberry compote (reserve the leftover blueberry syrup), then roll up each crepe.
-
34
Arrange the crepes, seam side down, on the baking sheet, brush the tops with a little of the brown butter, and sprinkle with a little confectioners sugar.
-
35
Heat in the oven until just warm, 1 to 2 minutes.
-
36
Drizzle some of the brown butter and blueberry compote syrup onto 6 large plates.
-
37
Place 2 crepes on each plate, drizzle the tops with a little more of the brown butter and some of the blueberry syrup, and garnish with mint if desired.
-
38
Combine the butter and salt in a medium saute pan over medium-high heat and cook, swirling the pan several times, until golden brown, about 2 minutes.
