LEMON-EGG SOUP WITH QUINOA
When I was in Peru, I learned all about quinoa: where it's grown in the mountains and how it's eaten throughout the country. One of the best dishes I sampled there was a simple but tasty soup that had chopped vegetables and was thickened with eggs and evaporated milk. My mind immediately imagined using quinoa in avgolemono, a creamy lemon-egg-orzo soup that's served in Greece but also throughout the Mediterranean and Middle East. This recipe became my perfect marriage of the two and is one of my go-to weeknight meals. Here, I use quinoa instead of orzo for a bit of protein, add a few more aromatics, but keep that signature, silky texture and bright lemony flavor.

Steps:
- To the bowl of a food processor, add the red onion, jalapeno, and garlic cloves. Process until finely chopped.
- Heat a Dutch oven or large pot with a lid over medium heat. Add olive oil and the chopped vegetables with a little salt to draw out the moisture. Sweat these out for 4 to 5 minutes, until the red onion is translucent.
- Add the quinoa to the pot and toast for a minute or two, stirring frequently. Add the stock, bay leaf, and lemon peel and bring up to a boil. Lower to a simmer and simmer covered for 20 minutes, until the quinoa is fully cooked. Remove from the heat.
- In an electric mixer or in a bowl with a whisk, whisk the egg whites until they have tripled in volume and are foamy. Whisk egg yolks together. Fold or very gently whisk yolks and lemon juice into the beaten whites. Ladle some of the hot (not boiling) soup into the egg mixture, whisking at the same time. You want to bring the eggs up to temperature without scrambling, so continue to add ladlefuls of soup until the temperature of the egg mixture is the same as the soup. Add the egg mixture back into the soup and stir for a minute or two to incorporate and create an even, creamy texture. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Serve immediately, sprinkled with the fresh herbs. I think cilantro is the most complementary herb here, but go with what you love best.
EGG LEMON SOUP
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.
LEMON CHICKEN SOUP WITH QUINOA
This delicious and healthy chicken soup has a tangy bonus: lemon juice. It's also very easy to put together and makes a big batch. I like to freeze in individual containers for a quick lunch.

SOUPA AVGOLEMONO (EGG-LEMON SOUP)
This tasty soup is very popular in Greece and Cyprus. I remember my father making it on chilly winter days, especially when there were colds and flu in the household! Sometimes he would add chopped, cooked chicken to the soup, and other times he would serve it plain. This is a taste of my childhood.
