Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

14 ounces chicken broth, 1 can
2 eggs
1 teaspoon cornstarch (optional)
salt (optional) or onion salt (optional)
1 green onion, chopped

Steps:

  • Heat broth in saucepan to boiling.
  • Meanwhile, whisk the eggs well. You can add the cornstarch to help keep the eggs in larger lumps in the soup.
  • Remove pan from heat once broth is boiling.
  • GENTLY stir in eggs. The more you stir the smaller the egg 'drops' will be.
  • Taste. Add salt if desired. Onion salt is really yummy here!
  • Garnish with chopped green onion.
  • NOTE: for sick tummies try adding a little lemon juice and leave out the salt and onion. This was the ONLY thing my Daddy could eat when going through chemo.

2 tb. cornstarch
1 tsp. ground ginger
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. toasted sesame oil
3 eggs, beaten in a measuring cup
freshly ground black pepper
optional: parsley flakes or green onions to garnish. also optional 4-6 drops of yellow food coloring. not necessary, but it looks like the soup you'd order at your favorite asian restaurant.

Steps:

  • Cook over medium heat to a low boil. Once boiling, cook for 1-2 minutes. Turn down burner to a low simmer. Pour beaten eggs into broth VERY SLOWLY while you stir in a large, slow circular motion. You don't want to stir too fast or the eggs will break up into tiny pieces. You're going for nice, long ribbons of egg.
  • Once the eggs have been added, turn off burner. Add freshly ground pepper and check salt to taste. Then add toasted sesame oil and 1 tsp. of parsley, if using. Garnish with diagonally cut green onions, if desired.
