Directions

In the top part of a double boiler, combine eggs and lemon juice.  Whisk and blend.  Add lemon zest, sugar, and butter.  Cook over hot water until thickened, whisking constantly.  Test doneness by inserting a metal spoon into curd.  It should coat the back of the spoon like custard.  Cool and refrigerate until ready to use.
