| EASY AVGOLEMONO SOUP |
The recipe couldn't be easier where you just about just cooked rice during a bunch of chicken stock before adding chicken and lemon along side the egg coagulate. The eggs are added after the primary tempering by slowly stirring some hot broth into the egg then relitching the mixture back to the soup. Eggs are added this manner in order that they don't ' cook ', turn white and scattered, like egg drop soups, when added to the broth.
Given how simple this soup is, i prefer to use quality ingredients including a delicious homemade chicken stock or chicken stock but the bought shop also works. Here's hoping for a few warmer spring weather and until arriving I'll enjoy a number of these Avgolemono Greek style lemon chicken soup!
