    I am usually a scathing critic of youtube home cooks. Missing so many steps and poor technique… but this is one of those VERY rare videos of someone doing something well!! I even liked that you roasted the chicken instead of just boiling it!! I hate that criticism. Just because the tradition is one way, or as I like to put it, just because the first people who made this soup, made it a particular way, doesn't make it right. Traditional recipes should always be adapted once we KNOW something better!! Roasting that chicken will improve that soup. End of story!! Wonderful recipe and well executed!!

    Greek here. Looks very professional made and tasty, but definitely not very close to the way we make it in Greece. Wish you a happy 2021!

    My mum used to make her own stock but I just use liquid store brought chicken stock because I’m too impatient and it turns out just as good! We’re also Cypriot

    Hi! Would love if you could make more Cypriot recipes! My husband is also Cypriot background and love avgolemono! But would love to try more recipes that are difficult to find online. 🌸

    My Yia yia rest her soul, made the most incredibly amazing Avoglomono soup. It's been years since I've had a bowl. I can still taste it all these years later…I'm 65 now. I must make it in her honor. I love you and miss you Yia yia. ⚘❤

    "If you haven't yet subscribed, I hope you'd consider it". I don't think i have ever heard any youtuber that actually said this before and it was very thoughtful

Thanks, I discovered you 2 months ago. Where have u been all my cooking life lol!?

    I also am married to a Greek-Cypriot man and I think I’ll make this when his family visits next week! Often it’s served after their Easter midnight service at their church.

    I assumed shareen was only a middle eastern name. I thought you were maybe Lebanese or possibly Iraqi Christian. My father is Egyptian but my mom is a mutt mix between French, Italian, and Greek mostly (from Samos)lol. Thanks for the amazing recipe. I’ll try to make it this way!!!
