Instruction 1

Instruction 2

With a small knife, tear any membrane remaining in bottoms of eggshells. Cover shells with 2 inches cold water in a 3-quart saucepan and add vinegar. Simmer over moderate heat, gently stirring occasionally and skimming off any debris, 15 minutes. Carefully transfer shells with a slotted spoon to a rack to cool. Wipe shells inside and out gently with a dampened paper towel to clean completely.

Whisk together cornstarch, sugar, and a pinch of salt in a 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan, then whisk in half-and-half until smooth. Bring to a boil over moderate heat, whisking constantly, then boil, whisking constantly, 2 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in lemon juice and butter, then transfer pudding to a metal bowl. Set bowl in a larger bowl of ice and cold water and stir frequently until cold, about 10 minutes. Transfer pudding, covered, to refrigerator (reserve ice water).

Instruction 4

Instruction 6

Arrange eggshells in an empty egg carton or eggcups. Spoon about 2 tablespoons lemon pudding into each eggshell and make a small well in center. Transfer lemon curd to a plastic bag, pressing out excess air. Snip off 1 corner of bag to create a 1/4-inch opening. Twisting bag firmly just above curd, pipe about 1 tablespoon into center of each egg to form "yolk." Serve puddings in shells with spoons, and with trompe l'oeil toasts if making.
