lemon orzo soup

i'll be honest. i did not like this soup. it didn't have enough orzo for me. it tasted waaaay too eggy. and the lemon - too much. but hey, you might like it.

hmm maybe i didn't temper the eggs right - but it was smooth and creamy without chunks of egg. maybe i was expecting something else. what, i don't know, but something with a bit more subtle lemon and definitely not tasting like a bowl of egg. if you really like lemon, try it, just add some more orzo.

it took no time to put together and the only thing i didn't have on hand already was the saffron, so i skipped it. all in all, an easy weeknight dinner.
