2. Cream the butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the sugar/orange zest mixture and mix until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, then add the orange juice and salt. Mix until combined.
3. Pour the mixture into a 2-quart saucepan and cook over low heat until thickened, about 10 minutes, stirring constantly.

Remove from the heat and let cool or refrigerate.
4. Place the orange curd in a bowl and decoratively arrange the strawberries on a serving platter around the bowl.
