Whenever my daughter is feeling under the weather she asks for her Grammy's Albanian soup. It's comfort food.
I have tweaked her recipe it a bit adding a large clove of garlic and on more than one occasion adding Frank's Red Hot sauce to taste. Tempering the eggs is probably something that may take you a little practice. As for the lemon you need to taste this soup along the way because lemon, especially fresh lemon, can easily overpower this recipe if you don't taste along the way. It freezes well too.
We love this soup!

I thought this soup had a wonderful flavor; I followed the recipe just the way it was. Next time, I will add some orzo to it to give it some texure. It was more like a broth unless I kept adding tons of pita chips. Great, easy recipe for a tasty soup!

I thought this soup was excellent and so easy. I followed Rachel's show instructions, although I used a dry Bay leaf and a pinch of saffron powder. I added orzo to a make a more filling soup. The flavor was perfect. Just the right tang of lemon and parsley. This soup would be wonderful when someone is sick with a cold or flu. I highly recommend this recipe.

I first saw Rachael make this soup on the food channel. I later made it when I had a cold. It was wonderful, filling and made me feel great! I loved the tangy lemon flavor.

I followed this recipe to a tee. It was absolutely the worst tasting soup I have ever made. The consistency was runny even though I used the correct amount of eggs. Too tart! Threw it away.

Delicious and surprisingly filling!

I omitted the Pita Chips to make it more low-carb friendly.

My two daughters who are 8 and 6 helped me make this soup. It was delicious! The girls loved it and and even asked for a second helping. My husband is from Greece and he never said a word all the way through his first bowl he loved it so much!! We are most certainly adding this recipe to our list of favorites. It is much easier than the recipe my mother-in-law taught me to make (the straight from Greece version. Thank You!

Not nearly the flavor that I expected. Needed richer broth or something -- it also separated, or curdled!, when it sat on the stove under low heat!

All I used was the chicken stock, lemon, eggs, parsley, and thyme (didn't have bay leaf so stuck a sprig of thyme in there instead. I thought it was super tasty. Nice and tangy from the lemon. Nice and creamy from the egg. Super quick and easy to make. It's not as good as the lemon soup I get from my fave greek restaurant, but I'll definitely be making this one again.
