- 8 cups chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon chicken bouillon powder (I use 1 small package)

- 1/4 cup butter (very soft)
- 1/4 cup flour

Method
- In a large pot combine the chicken broth, lemon juice, bouillon powder, garlic powder, chopped onion, celery and black pepper; bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In a bowl whisk the very soft butter with flour until smooth.
- While the soup is simmering gradually add to the broth stirring/whisking constantly; then simmer for about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile in a heat-proof bowl beat or whisk the egg yolks until pale in colour.
- Gradually add a little of the hot soup into the egg yolks whisking/stirring constantly.
- Return the egg mixture back into the pot and heat through, stirring constantly.
