Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 cups chicken stock ((about 1 liter, organic or homemade preferred!))
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon sugar
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
3 tablespoons cornstarch ((mixed with 1/3 cup water))
3 eggs ((lightly beaten))
1 scallion ((chopped))

Steps:

  • Bring the chicken stock to a simmer in a medium soup pot. Stir in the sesame oil, salt, sugar, and white pepper. Add in the turmeric or 5 drops of yellow food coloring, if using. This will give the soup that rich restaurant-style yellow color, but it is optional. Taste the soup, and adjust the seasoning if needed.
  • Next add the cornstarch and water mixture. Make sure the cornstarch and water is mixed well, as the cornstarch settles very quickly. Stir the soup continuously as you drizzle in the slurry, or you'll get clumps of cooked starch in your soup. Use more or less starch if you like a thicker or thinner soup. You can also add the starch in a couple small batches, let the soup simmer for a couple of minutes, then check to see if the consistency is to your liking.
  • Now we're ready for the most exciting part: the egg. This recipe calls for the egg to be lightly beaten, which results in both white and yellow egg swirls. The speed at which you stir the soup when adding the egg also determines whether you get large "egg flowers" or small egg flowers (i.e. swirly bits of egg). Use a ladle to stir the soup in a circular motion, and slowly drizzle in the egg until you have added it all.
  • Ladle the soup into bowls, top with scallions, and serve!

We start many stir-fry meals with this easy egg drop soup, which cooks in just a few minutes. There are many recipe variations, but we like the addition of cornstarch to thicken the soup and give it a rich, golden color.

EGG DROP SOUP



Egg Drop Soup image

This soup is very easy to make and very delicious. It is in fact so easy to make that it really is the sort of thing you can summon the will to cook even when you arrive home from work hungry. I originally made it out of nostalgia for a soup I had in college that endows its eater with good soup manners. I think it would work just as nicely with beef broth.

Time 30m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 cups chicken stock
1/2 cup water
1 clove garlic, sliced
12 sprigs cilantro
1 3-to-4-inch piece of ginger, sliced
20 or so peppercorns
1 pinch dried shrimp or scallops (optional)
Salt
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine or dry sherry
2 eggs
4 scallion stalks, white and light green parts, sliced thinly on a bias
Freshly ground white or black pepper

Steps:

  • Put chicken stock, water, garlic, cilantro, ginger, peppercorns and (if you are using) dried shrimp or scallops in a pot. Bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer. Let cook for 20 minutes.
  • Strain broth into another pot, taste and adjust salt. Bring back to a simmer. In a bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon cornstarch with Shaoxing wine or sherry. Whisk eggs with remaining teaspoon cornstarch.
  • Whisk wine-cornstarch mixture into soup until combined. With the soup on a low simmer, stir once with a spoon to make a slight current. Pour in the egg-cornstarch mixture, through the tines of a fork, letting it form ribbons. Allow 10 seconds to set, then stir gently to break them up as you like.
  • Top thickly with scallions and ground pepper, and serve.
