Recipe from America’s Test Kitchen which states, “For bright citrus flavor, successful lemon bars depend on ample amounts of fresh lemon juice, yes, but also a generous amount of lemon zest, which provides round, floral notes.

The lemon curd was particularly good and I would make just that in the future.
