EGG FLOWER SOUP



EGG FLOWER SOUP image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Egg     Quick & Easy     Simmer

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 cups chicken stock
2 cups baby spinach leaves (optional)
½ teaspoon Asian sesame oil
½ teaspoon salt
2 well-beaten eggs
3 tablespoons thinly sliced green onion

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan bring the chicken stock to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Stir in the spinach leaves, if using, sesame oil, and salt allowing the spinach to wilt into the soup. Stir well until the chicken broth is swirling in circles. Carefully and slowly pour the beaten eggs onto the surface of the soup continuing to stir gently and encouraging them to flow out into leafy petals and ribbons. Sprinkle the green onion onto the soup and serve hot.

Tips:

  • Use fresh eggs: Fresh eggs will give your soup a richer flavor and a creamier texture.
  • Beat the eggs well: Beating the eggs well will help them to distribute evenly throughout the soup and prevent them from curdling.
  • Add the eggs slowly: Add the eggs to the soup in a slow, steady stream, while stirring constantly. This will help to prevent them from curdling.
  • Don't overcook the eggs: Overcooked eggs will become tough and rubbery. Remove the soup from the heat as soon as the eggs are cooked through.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of sesame oil for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Egg flower soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to use up leftover chicken or vegetable broth, and it can also be made with fresh or frozen vegetables.
