Egg Drop Soup



Cuisine: Chinese

Region: Beijing

Recipe Type: Soup

Average User Rating: 4.5 / 5

Vegetarian / Vegan: Vegetarian

Ingredients:

4 cups vegetable stock
2 eggs, beaten lightly
2 green onions, chopped
1 tsp. soy sauce
1/4 tsp. white pepper
1/2 tsp. sesame oil
2 TB cornstarch mixed with 2 TB water (optional, if you prefer thicker soup)

Directions:

Heat stock and add soy sauce, white pepper, and sesame oil. Add cornstarch mixture (if using) and raise heat until soup begins to slightly boil. Remove from heat and slowly drizzle the beaten egg over the top of the hot soup with one hand while stirring the soup (gently) with the other (the egg will cook when it comes into contact with the soup - another method is to drop small spoonfuls of egg into the soup instead of drizzling - this creates more of an "egg flower" effect). Garnish with green onion and serve.

This was delicious but it was a little spicier than I felt egg drop soup should taste. All five of us who ate it agreed that next time we should maybe use a pinch of the white pepper. Very good though, thanks for sharing! Will definitely make again.
