Dear Cate, I'm Clio and I'm from Greece.I really like your blog, very good work.I found the Greece section -LRB-!!!!) and I wanted to give you some info about the avgolemono soup recipe.Here, in Greece, we don't cook this soup plain with just
rice, well, I certainly haven't heard it before.We have chicken avgolemono soup which is very popular, and there is a hole range of avgolemono recipes, soups and
casserole dishes.Avgolemono is a sauce, which is done at the end and finishes the recipe with eggs (avgo in greek) and lemons.For example, we have «lamp with lettuce avgolemono, meatballs avgolemono soup, zuccnini stuffed with mince avgolemono, an easter soup with liver chopped and fresh onions, very traditional, we also have dolmades, this is turkish dish, it is like little parcels made by
cabbage leaves that you steam a little and then are filled with mince,
rice and herbs, and avgolemono.And many others.
