Avgolemono

Avgolemono is a classic Greek soup known for its comforting warmth and bright, silky texture. The name comes from avgo (egg) and lemono (lemon), the two key ingredients that give the soup its signature creamy consistency and refreshing citrus finish—without the use of cream.

With roots in traditional home cooking across Greece, avgolemono has long been served as both everyday comfort food and a restorative dish during colder months or celebrations. The soup is typically made with a savory chicken broth, rice (or sometimes orzo), and finished with a carefully whisked egg-and-lemon mixture that gently thickens the broth.

Smooth, tangy, and deeply comforting, avgolemono is a timeless example of Greek cuisine’s balance between richness and freshness—simple ingredients transformed into something truly special.
