My schooling is in chemistry and when I first started cooking years ago...I would be leveling off 1/4 teaspoons of spices with all the tension of someone working in a bomb squad. I cooked like a baker. Over time, I've learned that cooking is more improvisational at times and to trust your instincts. I love watching someone loose and just flowing like this dude. 🇬🇷

Spencer Cresswell It varies from family to family. Some serve the chicken seperately from the soup on a plate and everyone adds to his/her plate as they like. I don't like this way. My family tradition is, after removing the meat from the broth clean all bones and skin, then cube it and add it back to the pot after about 10 minutes the egg+lemon sauce was added. Then let it warm up for 5-10 minutes and serve [don't let it cook more or the chicken will start breaking apart].

He probably does not - ususally you cut the chicken into smaller pieces and add them back inthe soup - what he was after was the kitchen broth, then mixed the rice/orzo, with the the liquid mixture of the 12 eggs with the lemon juice. You can add chicken pieces back in the soup if one wants.

my guess would be pepper..I make Avgolemono Soup all the time, my yiayia taught me years ago and I changed it a little, I make mine with uncle bens rice, chicken with natural chicken broth and bullion cubes and salt and pepper eggs and lemon, and everyone who has tried my soup told me it is the best they every had. I think corn starch and all those vegtables is a bad idea, to me it would ruin the taste, I also use a blender to make it creamy and top it with fresh ground pepper. It is to die for.
