Real Easy and Real Tasty Egg Drop Soup image

Again, adopted this recipe after living in China. It's really great as a starter or even as a quick snack! I like my egg drop soup gingery. Feel free to reduce amount of ginger if you're not a fan. I've removed the optional msg from the recipe, as I so rarely use it anyway.

Time 12m

Yield 3 bowls, 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 1/2 tablespoons cold water
4 cups chicken broth
2 teaspoons very finely chopped fresh ginger
1/4 cup chopped scallion
3 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil

Steps:

  • Mix cornstarch and cold water in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Put chicken broth, ginger and scallions in a pot and bring to a full boil. Turn off heat once boiled.
  • Add beaten eggs to the broth and immediately start stirring with a fork. Eggs should not be forming lumps. If they are, it is because the eggs were not stirred quickly enough after pouring into the broth. Eggs should have a silky texture and appearance.
  • Add cornstarch mixture and turn heat on low until broth thickens slightly. Turn heat off.
  • Stir in soy sauce, and sesame oil. Enjoy!

The soup was good, but I found it to be a bit too salty. I'll use less soy sauce next time.
