Avgolemono Soup

the sam livecast - avgolemono soup

Serves 4

A wonderful little Greek soup – just like Mrs. Kronopoulos, the wonderful little Greek woman who used to make it for me.

Ingredients

  • 6 cups Chicken broth
  • 3/4 cup rice
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • Juice of 2 lemons
  • Parsly for garnish

Steps

  1. Bring chicken broth to a boil, add rice and turn down to a simmer for about 15 minutes
  2. In a medium bowl, beat eggs and add lemon juice – stir to mix
  3. This next part is IMPORTANT – - if you just pour the egg mix into the soup right now it’ll turn to scrambled eggs, so don’t
  4. Take about a cup of the hot broth and slowly stir it into the egg mix – then slowly add one more
  5. Now that the egg mix is hot enough, you can add it into the broth in the pot
  6. Continue simmering until it thickens and is heated through and you’re done
  7. Serve with a little chopped parsley on top

You’ll won’t have a problem whipping this up for family and friends and you’ll have even less of a problem with the […]

    Potato Soup

    I’ll be the first to admit that potato soup sounds boring. But this one isn’t. The red onions help it taste great, plus it’s way fun because your guests get to customize it themselves with a choice of cool toppings. Think baked potato – but way better. It’s so good, just serve a salad with it and you’re done.

    Cioppino

    Think fish stew – unless that sounds gross. Then just think super delicious seafood in a glorious, rich tomato broth (which is basically a fish stew)
