Chinese Egg Drop Soup
 
Ingredients
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tetra pack of chicken broth (about 4 cups)
  • tablespoon of corn starch (you can use 2 TBSP of flour if you don't have corn starch or skip it completely for a thinner soup)
  • ¼-1/2 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon of soy sauce
  • 3 green onions chopped (optional)
  • ¼ teaspoon of white pepper (use black if you don't have white)
  • ¾ cup of sliced mushrooms of your choice (optional)
Instructions
  1. In a large pot, add chicken broth, ginger, soy sauce, green onions, mushrooms and pepper and bring to a boil.
  2. While you wait for it to boil put the corn starch or flour in a small container with a lid. Add some water, put the lid on and shake quickly until dissolved.
  3. Break the eggs into a bowl (or a liquid measuring cup works great) and beat them a little bit with a fork.
  4. When the pot is boiling add the cornstarch or flour mixture and stir.
  5. Turn the heat down to a simmer.
  6. While stirring add the eggs slowly to the pot. (Adding in the eggs is a great job for kids to do while you do the stirring)
  7. Serve with some green onion on top.
