The authentic version of this Greek soup is a chicken soup with an egg and lemon enrichment stirred in at the end. But I don't hesitate to make it using garlic broth, thereby transforming a Greek classic into a refreshing, lemony twist on garlic soup.

Avgolemeno (Chicken Soup with Egg-Lemon Sauce) image

Provided by Cat Cora

Categories     appetizer

Time 3h45m

Yield about 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (3 pound) free range chicken
12 cups cold water
3 tablespoons kosher salt
1 leek, cleaned and quartered
1 carrot, peeled and quartered
2 bay leaves
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 cups finely diced onion (about 1 medium onion)
2/3 cup arborio rice
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • In a 6 to 8-quart stockpot, combine the chicken, water, and 2 tablespoons salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; immediately reduce the heat to a very low simmer, and skim the foam from the surface. Add the leek, carrot, and bay leaves and continue to simmer with the chicken until the chicken is thoroughly cooked, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until translucent, about 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Remove chicken from the broth, and allow meat to cool. Strain the broth and skim the fat. (Place the broth in the refrigerator to make it easier to skim.)
  • When the chicken is cool enough to handle, pull the meat from the bones and discard the skin. Dice the meat into large cubes; refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Return the broth to high heat, add the rice and onion and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the rice is almost cooked through, about 20 minutes. Add the chicken and reduce the broth to a low simmer.
  • In a medium sized bowl, beat the lemon juice, eggs, and pepper. Ladle 2 cups of hot broth into a measuring cup with a pourable spout. While whisking, slowly pour the 2 cups of broth into the egg mixture. Pour the egg mixture back into the pot with the remaining 1 tablespoon of salt. Stir well to blend. Divide among bowls and serve immediately.

Categories     appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 quarts chicken broth
2/3 cup orzo
3 eggs
Juice of 1 1/2 lemons

Steps:

  • Bring the chicken broth to a boil in a saucepan. Stir in the orzo, reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until pasta is done. Turn off the heat, keeping the pan in its place.
  • Separate the eggs, and place the egg whites in a clean bowl and beat just until foamy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the egg yolks and continue beating until well mixed, another 2 minutes. Continuing to beat, gradually add the lemon juice. Slowly add about 3 cups of the hot chicken broth (at this point, use a thermometer to make sure the broth is just below 160 degrees F), beating as you add the broth in a very thin stream.
  • Using a wooden spoon or large fork, vigorously stir the orzo and remaining hot broth in an S pattern. Then quickly pour all of the egg lemon mixture into the saucepan while stirring. Keep the pan warm over very low heat, and stir in an S pattern until the soup thickens slightly and the froth is broken down. Serve hot.

EGG LEMON SOUP WITH MATZOS



Egg Lemon Soup with Matzos image

Rather than making matzo balls for this comforting soup, I crumble matzos into the broth -- no schmaltz required. In Greece the chicken that is later served as part of the main course for Passover is simmered in water with aromatic vegetables to create the broth. You can make a very tasty vegetarian version using garlic broth (my favorite) or vegetable broth. I like to add steamed Swiss chard when I stir in the egg-lemon mixture, but you could add another green spring vegetable, like fresh peas, spinach or asparagus. Steam them first until tender and add to the soup just before serving.

Categories     dinner, soups and stews, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 quarts well-seasoned chicken stock, garlic broth or vegetable stock
2 cups chopped Swiss chard leaves (about half of a generous bunch)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
2 whole matzos, broken into small pieces
3 egg yolks
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (more to taste)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Bring the stock to a simmer. Meanwhile, steam the Swiss chard for 2 to 3 minutes above an inch of boiling water, just until tender. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • When the broth comes to a simmer, add the olive oil and the matzos and turn off the heat. Cover and let sit for 15 minutes, until the matzo is very soft.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks until creamy. Whisk in the lemon juice.
  • Heat the soup over medium-low heat, just to the simmer. Carefully whisk a couple of ladles of the hot soup into the egg yolks. It should not be boiling-- you don't want the egg yolks to curdle. Turn off the heat under the soup and stir in the egg-lemon mixture. Stir in the steamed chard and the parsley. Taste, adjust salt and pepper and serve.

AVGOLEMONO (GREEK EGG AND LEMON SOUP)



Avgolemono (Greek Egg and Lemon Soup) image

The name of this classic soup comes from its two main ingredients: egg (avgo)and lemon juice (lemoni).

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 cups Homemade Chicken Stock Homemade Chicken Stock, or canned low-sodium chicken broth, skimmed of fat
2 cups uncooked orzo, (rice-shaped pasta)
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, bring 6 cups stock to a boil. Add orzo; cook until al dente, 10 minutes. Add salt and pepper.
  • Dissolve cornstarch in 1/2 cup water. Heat remaining 2 cups stock until hot; do not boil.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ramps for the best flavor. If you can't find ramps, you can substitute green onions or chives.
  • To make the soup even more flavorful, use chicken stock instead of water.
  • Don't overcook the eggs. They should be just barely set.
  • Serve the soup immediately, garnished with fresh herbs and a drizzle of olive oil.
