i did not try this, but just a suggestion that i like. The greek deli by my house makes the best avgolemono soup i've had. They put chunks of chicken in it along with chopped celery and use orzo rather than rice. The orzo is delicious in this.

I tired this a couple of weeks ago using the juice from a baked chicken, stuffed with preserved lemons, so the stock was much richer to start with and it came out perfectly. This time I used boxed chicken broth and it wasn't quite as flavorful, but still very good. I added powdered chicken broth. I also added more rice and lemon juice, as I like the tang of the lemon to be stronger. I also added chopped chicken. It is very good.

I was pleased to see the other comments on this soup. My husband and I had just experienced a wonderfully balanced Avgolemono Soup at a local Greek restaurant. The next day I cooked up this version for my family and found the lemon to be more dominant than the soup we had just enjoyed. We all agreed that the lemon juice should be reduced. Interestingly enough, I first saw this recipe prepared on local television. Then, after doing a rigorous search on the web, I found that most sites offered this identical recipe. I did find a couple of variations– one omitted milk, cornstarch and butter; another added freshly ground nutmeg and broken pieces of spaghetti. kj

Absolutely wonderful recipe! I agree it might be considered to "lemony" by some, but it was great for me. I love the consistency of this soup with the milk and cornstarch. Next time I will add some carrots, dill, and celery like my local restraunt does!
