["Whisk eggs, egg yolks, sugar, lemon juice, lemon peel, and coarse salt in medium metal bowl to blend well.", "Set bowl over saucepan of simmering water (do not allow bottom of bowl to touch water).", "Whisk constantly until mixture thickens and instant-read thermometer inserted into mixture registers 170u00b0F to 172u00b0F, 5 to 6 minutes.
