Ingredients
3 eggs
3/4 cup white sugar
1 heaping tablespoon lemon zest
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (I used 3 lemons for both zest and juice)
1/4 cup unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Instructions
In a double-boiler, add eggs, sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice to whisk to combine. Cook on moderate heat, whisking constantly, until mixture become thick (8 to 10 minutes).

Remove from heat, and immediately strain through a mesh sieve. Add butter and whisk until it’s completely incorporated and the mixture is smooth.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours before eating.
