Tofu???

This is such a traditional soup, in fact its called Egg Lemon soup (avgolemono) that it is unfathomable to substitute the egg with tofu.... half the uniqueness of its taste is the tangyness of the egg! Plus it is typically made with chicken stock and meat. Admittedly, it is hard to prepare, preventing the egg from separating. Whisking it feverishly helps and adding the egg slowly.

I found the soup easy to make and a real hit during dinner. Very tasty. I will definately make again.

I followed the instructions to a T, but the results were rather unremarkable. It's not that it was bad, but it just wasn't good either. I won't be making this one again. (Sidenote: the picture does not match the recipe. Adding turmeric turns the soup yellow.)
