Chervil Avgolemono
- 4 cups chicken broth (fresh, homemade if possible)
- 14 cup long grain white rice
- 2 tablespoons long grain white rice
- 3 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 14 cup fresh chervil, chopped
- salt (to taste-depending on broth)
- Cook both amounts of rice in the broth just until tender (10-12 minutes).
- Whisk the eggs and lemon juice together and add some of the hot stock (3/4 C) slowly, while whisking.
- Whisk this mixture back into rice and broth and stir constantly with a wooden spoon over LOW heat, just until it begins to thicken (only a minute, or so).
- Remove from heat.
- Soup should be smooth and glossy.
- Add chervil, season and serve right away.
- ***This soup mustn't simmer/boil or the eggs will scramble.
- If you must keep it warm for a while before serving-- use a double boiled method (like for melted chocolate).
