Add sugar, salt, and cornstarch in a non-stick saucepan - use 6 tablespoons for a lightly thick curd and 8 tablespoons for a firmer texture closer to custard. Whisk well to combine.
Whisk in lemon juice, plant-based milk of choice, and turmeric.
Bring the saucepan to medium-high heat and whisk constantly and gently, until a light boil forms. Reduce to medium heat, switch to a silicone spatula, stir, and cook for 3-4 minutes, until the mixture thickens, bubbles form on the sides of the pan, and it looks glossy.
Remove from heat and whisk in vegan butter and lemon zest.
Transfer the lemon curd to a glass jar, cool down at room temperature for an hour, then store it in the fridge for up to 4 days.
