Place eggs, sugar, salt, lemon juice and lemon zest in a saucepan. Whisk until combined, then place over low heat.
Stir constantly, until mixture thickens, about 4-6 minutes. On very low heat, add butter and stir until smooth. Strain lemon curd into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Allow to cool about 10 minutes, then refrigerate overnight.
Serve and refrigerate leftovers up to 3 days.
