Ingredients

• ✓ lemon
• milk
• salt

Instructions

1. 1 Pour milk into a large pot, then stir in salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent milk from scorching on the bottom of the pot.
2. 2 When milk begins to boil (small bubbles will first appear at the edges), turn off the heat. Stir in lemon juice. Milk will curdle; you may need to wait 5 to 10 minutes.
3. 3 Line a sieve or colander with a cheesecloth. Pour milk through the cloth to catch the curds. Gather cheesecloth around the cheese and squeeze out as much liquid (whey) as you can. What is left in the cheesecloth is farmer's cheese. Use the whey for another use (some people drink it), or discard. Wrap cheese in plastic or place in an airtight container.

Ingredients

• ✓ lemon
• chicken
• white rice
• salt
• black pepper
• egg

Instructions

1. 1 Rinse chicken and remove any organs that may be inside. Place in a pot large enough for it to move around, but not too big or the broth will be watery. Add the chicken neck if that is included with your chicken.
2. 2 Fill the pot with enough water to cover by about 1 inch. Cover and bring to a boil. When it boils, reduce heat to low and simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour, skimming the fat from the top as it collects. The meat should pull from the bones easily.
3. 3 Transfer the chicken to a large bowl and set aside to cool.
4. 4 Add rice to the broth and season with salt and pepper. Simmer over low heat until rice is tender, about 20 minutes.
5. 5 While the rice is cooking, whisk eggs and lemon juice together in a bowl. Remove chicken meat from the bones.
6. 6 When rice is finished, turn off the heat. Whisk one ladle full of hot broth into the eggs slowly so the eggs do not curdle. Gradually whisk in more broth until the egg mixture is heated. Pour the hot egg mixture back into the pot, whisking briskly. The result should be a creamy, cloudy-looking soup. Season with salt, pepper, or lemon juice as needed.
7. 7 Add pieces of chicken to the soup before serving or serve soup with salted chicken on the side.
