Instructions (2 steps)

01In a heavy saucepan, combine the whole eggs, yolks and sugar and whisk to combine well. Stir in the salt, zest, lemon juice and butter. Place the pan over medium-low heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the butter melts and the sauce becomes thick and slightly gelatinous. Do not overcook.
02Immediately remove the pan from the heat and strain the sauce through a mesh sieve, pressing on the sauce with a rubber spatula. Refrigerate until cooled, and serve with biscuits or scones.
