Instructions
Creating Egg Drop Soup is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Heat the Broth: In a medium saucepan, bring the chicken or vegetable broth to a gentle boil over medium heat.
2. Prepare Cornstarch Mixture: In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water until smooth. Add this mixture to the boiling broth to thicken it slightly, stirring well.
3. Add Seasonings: Stir in the sesame oil, soy sauce, and white pepper. Adjust salt to taste.
4. Whisk the Eggs: In another bowl, beat the eggs until well mixed.
5. Create Egg Ribbons: Reduce the heat to low. Slowly drizzle the beaten eggs into the hot broth while stirring gently. This will create silky ribbons of egg.
6. Garnish: Once the eggs are added, remove the soup from the heat. Ladle the soup into bowls and top with chopped green onions for garnish.
7. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your delicious Egg Drop Soup while it’s hot!
