Lemony Egg Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Bring stock to a boil with saffron, bay leaf, and lemon peel. Cover and steep 5 minutes then turn off heat and remove bay leaf and peel.
• Whisk eggs and yolks with lemon juice and hot sauce. Whisk in 1/2 cup of the soup to temper the eggs. Whisk the egg mixture into the soup then turn heat on low and whisk together until soup thickens slightly, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in parsley and season with salt and pepper. Ladle soup into bowls and top with a few pita chips.

Steps:

• Put the butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. When it melts, add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the parsley and cook, stirring occasionally, until it wilts, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in about half the stock.
• Purée the soup in the pan with an immersion blender, or cool slightly, pour into an upright blender and purée carefully. Return to the pan with the remaining stock. Heat through over medium-low heat, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Beat together the eggs and lemon juice, then slowly add about 1 cup of the hot soup, whisking all the while. Gradually stir the egg mixture back into the soup. Taste and adjust the seasoning, then stir in the cream if you're using it, or serve garnished with a dollop of sour cream, if you like.

Steps:

• In a medium pot, bring stock to a simmer. Add rice and simmer gently until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in escarole for the last 5 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and 2 tablespoons lemon. Whisking constantly, slowly ladle 1 cup hot broth into the egg mixture. Pour mixture into the pot of hot stock. Cook gently until soup begins to thicken, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with lemon zest, salt, pepper and more lemon juice, if desired.

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.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, bring the chicken stock, water, and rice to a simmer. Cook until the rice is tender, about 20 minutes.
• In a small bowl, beat the eggs until light yellow. Whisk a few tablespoons of the soup into the eggs. Then slowly add the egg mixture to the soup, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the soup reaches 160 degrees F, about 5 minutes. Add in the lemon juice and soy sauce, stir to combine, and serve garnished with the green onions and freshly ground black pepper, if desired.

Steps:

• Bring broth to a boil in a 3 quart saucepan over medium heat. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, lemon juice and lemon pepper until well blended, then slowly whisk in 1 cup of the hot broth. Lower heat; add egg mixture, stirring constantly. Cook over low heat, stirring until heated through. (Don't boil! Eggs will curdle.)
• Remove from heat and stir in lemon zest. Ladle into serving bowls and sprinkle each serving with a little Parmesan.

Steps:

• Bring the garlic broth to a simmer and season as desired with salt and pepper. Add the rice and simmer until tender, about 15 minutes, or until the rice is tender.
• Beat the eggs in a small bowl and beat in the lemon juice.
• Distribute the optional broccoli among 4 soup bowls. Ladle about 1/2 cup of the hot broth into the lemon/egg mixture and whisk together. Making sure that the soup is not boiling, stir the egg mixture back into the soup and turn off the heat. Stir for a minute or two, taste and adjust seasonings. Add the parsley, and serve.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, bring broth to a boil over medium heat. Add rice; boil 15 minutes.
• In a bowl, beat eggs until foamy. Beat in lemon juice. Beat half the hot soup into the eggs, 1/4 cup at a time. Stir egg mixture into remaining soup; cook over very low heat, stirring just until heated through.

Steps:

• Bring broth to boil in saucepan, and add rice or orzo.
• Cover and cook on medium low heat for 20-25 minutes (rice) or 10 minutes (orzo).
• While the rice cooks, lightly beat the eggs and the lemon juice together.
• Remove the broth from heat.
• Slowly mix about one cup of the hot broth into egg-lemon mixture.
• Add to the soup gradually while stirring.
• Place saucepan back on the heat, and stir until soup is heated through (DO NOT BOIL).
• Serve.

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.

Steps:

• Bring stock to a simmer over medium heat. Add broccoli and simmer 3 to 5 minutes, until just tender. Stir in turkey and olive oil and turn heat to low. Season with salt and pepper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk egg yolks until creamy. Whisk in lemon juice.
• Making sure soup is not boiling, slowly whisk a couple of ladles of hot soup into egg yolks, whisking constantly. Turn off heat under soup and stir in tempered egg-lemon mixture. Stir in parsley. Taste and adjust salt and pepper.
• Distribute rice among six bowls. Ladle soup into bowls and serve.

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.
