Egg Drop Soup Recipe
Somone asked for this recipe and I thought others might like this as well. I really like it.
Ingredients:
4 cups chicken broth
2 tablespoons green onions (chopped) - I skipped these
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon salt
1 ½ tablespoons cornstarch
4 eggs
Lite Soy Sauce
Step 1: Reserve ¾ cup of the chicken broth (it will later be mixed with the cornstarch). Pour the rest of the broth into a sauce pan.
Step 2: Stir in ginger, salt, and green onions (I skipped the green onions) and a splash of lite soy sauce. Bring to a boil. While bring to a boil combine the corn starch with the reserve chicken broth and mix well. Set aside.
Step 3: In a bowl whisk eggs with a fork. I added extra egg white to up the protein.
Step 4: Slowly drizzle the egg a little at a time with a fork into the boiling broth. The egg will cook right away. Stir immediately and in only one direction.
Step 5: Pour the cornstarch mixture into the broth and stir until its mixed well

Diana, being a devoted Asian food junkie, I can tell you that Sharon's recipe is exactly right. The trick is to keep the water slowly swirling in one direction & very, very slowly add the egg. The idea is for it to become strands rather than chunks or globs. I would even suggest having only one egg yolk & the rest just egg whites.
Good job, Sharon!! & good luck, Diana!! lol
