Set up a double boiler and whisk the egg yolks, sugar, zest of 1 lemon, juice of 3 lemons, and salt in a heatproof bowl. Then place the mixture over the boiler. Whisk the mixture until it thickens slightly. Remove the bowl from the boiler and fold in the butter. Pour the mixture into a sealable jar and refrigerate.
