Directions:

  1. In the microwave, put the lemon zest in a small container and cook for 30 seconds to extract the oil from the lemon.
  2. In a saucepan, on medium heat, bring the bouillon or stock to a boil. Add the rice and bring back to a boil (skim top if necessary and discard).
  3. Add the cinnamon stick and cook for 5 to 8 minutes until the rice is cooked. After 5 minutes of cooking add the lemon zest. Add salt and pepper.
  4. In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks until a pale yellow colour. Add the lemon juice and whisk to incorporate. Add the bouillon or stock mixture and remove the cinnamon stick.
  5. Pour the soup in a saucepan and continue simmering until the soup thickens but do not let it boil. Serve with pieces of toasts or crackers.
