AVGOLEMONO (EGG-LEMON SAUCE)



Avgolemono (Egg-Lemon Sauce) image

Provided by Jonathan Reynolds

Categories     condiments

Time 20m

Yield About 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon flour
2 large eggs, separated
Kosher salt to taste
1 cup simmering chicken stock
Freshly ground white pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Fill the bottom of a double boiler about 1/3 full of water and bring it to a simmer. Combine the lemon juice and flour in a stainless-steel bowl and whisk until smooth. Add the egg yolks and whisk until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
  • In the top of the double boiler (but not over the heat), whip egg whites and a pinch of salt until fluffy. Slowly drizzle the yolk mixture into the whipped whites, whisking constantly to maintain the volume. Place over the simmering water and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture is light in color, fluffy and begins to thicken, about 4 minutes. Very slowly whisk in the hot stock. Continue cooking and whisking for another 2 minutes to thicken. Reserve sauce off the stove in the double boiler. Do not reheat or the sauce may curdle. Season to taste with salt and white pepper.

EASY AVGOLEMONO SAUCE



Easy Avgolemono Sauce image

I'm Hispanic, my husband is a first generation Greek-American. Suffice to say that he's a Greek Food Purist...!!! He never thought I'd be able to produce anything that would be considered authentic. This easy version of Avgolemono Sauce, I'm happy to say, passes muster. This can be served on so many things, but our favorite is over Dolmades and over stuffed peppers. Nothing scary here, it's easy so long as you temper the eggs carefully and never let the sauce come to a boil.

Categories     Sauces

Time 10m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 5

2/3 cup chicken broth (preferably homemade)
2 large eggs
1/4 cup lemon juice
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, bring broth to a boil.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, then add the lemon juice and whisk until frothy.
  • While continuing to whisk, pour half the boiling broth into the eggs in a small stream, whisking vigorously and continually so that the eggs don't cook.
  • Return the broth to the flame and pour the tempered eggs into the remaining broth, whisking the whole time. Cook until the sauce thickens slightly, but NEVER LET THE SAUCE BOIL. This will take about five minutes.
  • Serve immediately. This sauce doesn't reheat well.
