Greek Lemon Soup usually has rice at the bottom, and a slightly sour and tangy flavor because of the lemons. It's a great soup to have in the winter because it's a hot soup that's great when you come in from the cold.
Here is how to make it:
Ingredients:
- 4 cups "Basic Soup"
- 1/4 cup rice
- 2 eggs
- The juice of 1 lemon (about 3 tablespoons)
- Boil the rice in the "Basic Soup" for 15-20 minutes; until the rice is tender but not soft. Then remove it from the heat.
- Beat the eggs in a separate bowl until they are light.
- Beat the lemon juice into the eggs.
- Continue beating the egg mixture, and slowly ladle a cup of the "Basic Soup" into it.*
- Whisk the remainder of the "Basic Soup" and pour the egg mixture slowly into it.
- Heat the soup until it almost boils, stirring constantly.
- Enjoy!
