Avgolemono is a classic Greek soup that offers a delightfully creamy texture and a tangy flavor. Made with simple and wholesome ingredients, this soup is both comforting and nutritious. Below you'll find a step-by-step guide to making this delicious dish.
- For a richer flavor, consider using homemade chicken stock instead of store-bought.
- Temper the eggs by adding a small amount of hot soup gradually before mixing it with the rest of the soup to prevent curdling.
- Taste the soup before serving and adjust the lemon juice to suit your preference for tanginess.
- For added texture and flavor, consider adding some finely chopped fresh herbs like dill or parsley.
- If you prefer a thicker soup, you can blend a portion of the rice before adding it back to the pot.
