Steps:
- 1. In a large saucepan, bring the broth to a boil.
- 2. Add the orzo, rice, or pastina and cook until tender but still al dente, about 7 minutes (20, if using rice). Season with the salt and pepper and reduce heat to low; simmer.
- 3. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and lemon juice until smooth.
- 4. Ladle about 1 cup of the hot broth into the egg-and-lemon mixture, then whisk to combine.
- 5. Add the mixture back to the simmering saucepan. Stir just until the soup becomes opaque and thickens as the eggs cook, 1 to 2 minutes. Add more salt and pepper, if desired, and serve.
AVGOLEMONO
Avgolemono gets its smooth and thick consistency not from cream but from eggs; they're tempered by hot chicken broth and whisked into the soup just before serving. Shredded boneless, skinless chicken breast makes this soup a filling one that is nevertheless low in calories and fat.

Steps:
- Bring broth to a simmer in a 4-quart pot over high heat; add chicken. Reduce heat; simmer gently until chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer chicken to a bowl. Reserve broth in pot. Let chicken cool slightly, and then shred with a fork into bite-size pieces.
- Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Add orzo; cook until al dente. Drain. Add orzo and chicken to reserved broth. Bring broth just to a gentle simmer, and then reduce heat to low.
- Beat together eggs and lemon juice in a medium bowl until smooth. Ladle 1 cup hot broth into egg-lemon mixture, whisking constantly until mixture is warm to the touch. Stir the egg-broth mixture into the broth in the pot. Stir in the dill, and season with pepper.

Steps:
- Whisk the eggs in a bowl, then run them through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any stray shells.
- Combine the 12 cups chicken broth and the lemon juice in a pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat and hold at a simmer.
- Temper the eggs by gradually whisking broth into the eggs, one ladleful at a time. When you have added about a quarter of the broth, stir the mixture back into the pot. Cook at a low simmer, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. (Be careful not to let the soup boil or the eggs will overcook and ruin it.) Stir in the salt and white pepper and strain the soup through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps.
- In a small saucepan, combine the shredded chicken and the 1/2 cup chicken broth. Bring to a simmer to warm the chicken, then strain off the broth. Divide the chicken and orzo among six bowls; add 1 teaspoon of the chopped dill to each bowl. Ladle the soup into the bowls and serve immediately.

Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, bring the stock to a boil. Stir in the rice and cook until tender, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, beat the egg yolks and lemon juice together in a large bowl.
- When the rice is tender, slowly ladle half of the hot broth into the yolks to temper them, whisking constantly. Whisk the egg yolk mixture into the broth and place over low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, just long enough to thicken the soup. Do not boil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
AVGOLEMONO SOUP - EASY AND AWESOME!
I've been chasing the perfect avgolemono soup for the past year. This recipe is a labor of love, made probably about 45 times to get it to it's soupy perfection. I had tried a few recipes I found online, but found they were sub par to my avgolemono soup standards. After searching, testing and tweaking, this is my soup that I've come up with, and my picky friends approve. I hope you enjoy!

Steps:
- Notes: The outcome of soup really depends on the quality of the chicken base you use. I have found that broth is too weak for the most part, so I highly recommend avoiding broth for this recipie. I have found better success with bullion. The bullion gives you control over the strength of the chicken flavor. If you have a good chicken base, the soup will be good. If you have bad bullion/broth, the soup will be sub-par. A good test is tasting the broth on it's own. If it tastes like a soup you'd eat on it's own, it's a good place to start!
- Place 5 cups of tap water in a large pot. Set pot on stove and heat on Med-High.
- Meanwhile, using a large bowl, rinse the 1/2 cup white rice in cold water 3-4 times. Remove any excess water from the rice after rinsing.
- Once the water begins to boil, add the rinsed rice into the pot.
- Immediately after adding the rice, add 2 1/2 cubes of Knorr Chicken bullion to the boiling pot, stirring until the bullion dissolves. Allow the soup to boil for 1 minute.
- Cover the pot with a lid, and turn the temperature of the stove down to simmer. Set a timer for whatever the recommended cook time of the rice LESS 5 minute (So if the rice cooking instructions say 20 min, set the timer for 15).
- Now, in a large mixing bowl, break open three eggs and add 3 TBS of lemon juice. Lemon lovers, hold your horses at this step. You can add more lemon at the end to your lemony liking. This is just to set the eggs. Using an electric mixer on LOW, or a handheld manual mixter, thoroughly blend the lemon and egg together until very smooth. The more blended this mixture, the less likely you will have egg separate in the soup. If you are mixing by hand, make sure you get it as smooth as possible mixing very well. Allow the lemon egg mixture to rest in the bowl about 15 minutes stirring occasionally.
- When the timer for the broth goes off, remove the pot from the heat source. Take one cup full of the HOT chicken broth and slowly stir it into your mixing bowl containing the lemon egg mixture. Repeat this 3 times, or for as much broth as you can safely transfer.
- Now, take the contents of the mixing bowl and pour it back into the pot. Stir the mixture well.
- Bring the soup in pot to a boil on a med/low heat and allow to boil for 3 minutes.
- Add more lemon to your liking 1 TBS at a time. It's easy to over lemon, so make sure you take it slow. I usually like about 2 extra TBS.
- Serve hot and Enjoy! (re-heating the soup will cause it to become very thick).

Steps:
- Place the lobsters in a large pot of boiling water for 5 minutes. Remove them and place in a large bowl of ice water, to cool. Remove the claw and tail meat. Cut the tail meat into 1-inch pieces. Cut the claw in half lengthwise. Set both aside. Roughly chop the shells.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add chopped shells to cover the bottom of the pot in one layer. Cook in the oil until deep red, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining shells and cover with chicken broth. Add the tomatoes and simmer gently over medium heat until it reduces to 1 1/2 quarts, about 30 to 40 minutes. Strain, set the lobster broth aside and discard the shells.
- In a soup pot over medium heat, saute the onions in 1 tablespoon of olive oil until golden, about 5 minutes. Add the potatoes and cover with the lobster broth. Simmer gently until the potatoes are tender but firm, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, put the egg yolks in a glass or ceramic bowl, whisk in the lemon juice and set aside. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a saute pan over high heat until hot. Add the lobster meat, and quickly saute, about 3 minutes. Add the lobster meat to the soup, whisk 1 ladle of soup into the yolk-and-lemon mixture, and slowly add it back into the soup pot. Do not allow the soup to boil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Ladle the soup into 6 bowls and garnish with chives.

EASY AVGOLEMONO SAUCE
I'm Hispanic, my husband is a first generation Greek-American. Suffice to say that he's a Greek Food Purist...!!! He never thought I'd be able to produce anything that would be considered authentic. This easy version of Avgolemono Sauce, I'm happy to say, passes muster. This can be served on so many things, but our favorite is over Dolmades and over stuffed peppers. Nothing scary here, it's easy so long as you temper the eggs carefully and never let the sauce come to a boil.

Steps:
- In a small saucepan, bring broth to a boil.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, then add the lemon juice and whisk until frothy.
- While continuing to whisk, pour half the boiling broth into the eggs in a small stream, whisking vigorously and continually so that the eggs don't cook.
- Return the broth to the flame and pour the tempered eggs into the remaining broth, whisking the whole time. Cook until the sauce thickens slightly, but NEVER LET THE SAUCE BOIL. This will take about five minutes.
- Serve immediately. This sauce doesn't reheat well.

Steps:
- In a stainless steel bowl, whip the egg yolks with a pinch of salt.
- In a separate stainless steel bowl fitted for a double boiler, whip the egg whites with a pinch of salt until fluffy. Fold the yolks into the whites, blending well.
- Bring a saucepan or the bottom of a double boiler filled with water to a simmer.
- In a small bowl, blend the cornstarch into the lemon juice and whisk into the egg mixture. Put the bowl over the pot of simmering water, whisking constantly. In about 4 minutes, the mixture will lighten in color and the sauce will thicken. Gradually add the reserved cup of hot chicken stock to the egg mixture, whisking constantly. Continue cooking and whisking 2 minutes longer, until the avgolemono thickens. Keep warm if necessary in the double boiler, off the heat. Add to the chicken soup right before serving.
