Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

3 cups stock (dashi is preferable, otherwise chicken or vegetable is fine)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
2 -3 fresh mushrooms (optional)
1 whole beaten egg
2 -3 stalks coriander or 1/2 tablespoon chives, chopped (optional)
szechwan pepper (sansho)

Steps:

Heat stock in a saucepan and stir in salt and soy sauce.
If using mushrooms, wash and slice thinly and add to the stock.
Simmer for 3-4 minutes.
Bring soup to a boil and with a ladle or chopsticks stir the soup clockwise.
Pour in the beaten egg, remove the soup from the heat and stir counterclockwise.
If using add trefoil/coriander/chives, cover pot for 30-40 seconds then uncover and add pepper.
Serve immediately.
If you cannot find the sansho/Szechwan peppercorns, I imagine a pinch of standard black pepper (or a blend, which often contain sansho/Szechwan peppercorns) will do.

Tips:

Use fresh eggs: Fresh eggs will give your soup a richer flavor and texture.
Whisk the eggs well: Whisking the eggs well will help them cook evenly and smoothly.
Add the eggs slowly: Slowly drizzle the eggs into the hot broth, stirring constantly. This will help prevent them from curdling.
Don't overcook the eggs: The eggs should be cooked just until they are set. Overcooking them will make them tough and rubbery.
Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of soy sauce or rice vinegar for extra flavor.
Serve immediately: Egg drop soup is best served immediately after it is made. This will help prevent the soup from becoming watery.
