Avgolemono soup is a traditional Greek dish that combines the zestiness of lemon with the comforting flavor of chicken broth, creating a savory meal perfect for any season. This version uses white rice to add heartiness and the richness of eggs to create a creamy texture without any dairy.
- Ensure that the broth is hot but not boiling to prevent the eggs from curdling when you add them.
- Whisk the eggs and lemon juice thoroughly before tempering them with the hot broth to achieve a smooth and creamy texture.
- Constantly stir the soup while adding the egg-lemon mixture to evenly distribute the heat and prevent curdling.
- Use fresh lemon juice for the best flavor, and adjust the amount according to your taste preference.
- If you prefer a thicker soup, you can add a little more rice or cook it slightly longer to allow the rice to release more starch.
Avgolemono soup with white rice is a delicious and satisfying dish that is relatively simple to prepare. The combination of tangy lemon, savory chicken broth, and the creamy texture created by the eggs make it a unique and flavorful soup. It's perfect for a cozy family dinner or as an impressive starter for a dinner party.
