EGG DROP SOUP
We start many stir-fry meals with this easy egg drop soup, which cooks in just a few minutes. There are many recipe variations, but we like the addition of cornstarch to thicken the soup and give it a rich, golden color. I got the recipe from Grandma's old cookbook. -Amy Beth Corlew-Sherlock, Lapeer, Michigan

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh eggs, flavorful broth, and crisp vegetables will make all the difference in the taste of your soup.
- Don't overcook the eggs: The eggs should be cooked just until they are set, otherwise they will become tough and rubbery.
- Add the eggs slowly: Slowly drizzling the eggs into the soup while stirring constantly will help prevent them from curdling.
- Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You may also want to add a splash of rice vinegar or soy sauce for extra flavor.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: Chopped green onions, cilantro, or basil are all great options.
