We calculate a resummed equation of state with lattice QCD simulations at imaginary chemical potentials. This work presents a generalization of the scheme introduced in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 126, 232001 (2021) to the case of nonzero , focusing on the line of strangeness neutrality. We present results up to on the strangeness neutral line in the temperature range . We also extrapolate the finite baryon density equation of state to small nonzero values of the strangeness-to-baryon ratio . We perform a continuum extrapolation using lattice simulations of the 4stout-improved staggered action with 8, 10, 12 and 16 time slices.
