Egg Drop Soup

Ingredients

• 4 cups chicken broth
• 1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp water
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
• 2 green onions, sliced
• 1 tsp tamari
• salt and pepper to taste

Method

1. 1

   Bring the chicken broth and ginger to a gentle simmer in a pot.

2. 2

   Stir in the cornstarch slurry and simmer 1-2 minutes until the broth thickens slightly.

3. 3

   While gently stirring the broth in a slow, steady circle, drizzle in the beaten eggs in a thin stream — this steady motion is what creates silky ribbons of egg instead of clumps.

4. 4

   Stir in tamari, remove from heat.

5. 5

   Garnish with green onions before serving.
