Egg Drop Soup

Silky ribbons of egg in a delicate chicken broth, finished with sesame oil — ready in minutes.

Ingredients

  • 1 L chicken broth
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 stalks scallions
  • 0.5 tsp white pepper
  • 0.5 tsp salt

Steps

  1. Bring chicken broth to a rolling boil, season with salt and white pepper.
  2. Mix cornstarch with 2 tbsp cold water, stir into the broth to create a slightly thickened consistency.
  3. Beat eggs in a bowl, slowly drizzle into the simmering broth in a thin stream while stirring gently in one direction — the egg will form delicate silky ribbons.
  4. Remove from heat immediately, drizzle with sesame oil, garnish with sliced scallions.
  5. Serve hot.
