Egg Drop Soup

Asian food is delicious.  All of it. I love pretty much every Asian food I have ever eaten so I love trying to replicate restaurant foods.  I think I have only made soup one or two other times in my life but I was really craving soup this afternoon so I thought why not try it out and make some egg drop soup.

I thought soup would be hard. Nope. Super, super easy.  This literally took me 5 minutes to make and was simple and delicious.  If I ever have another soup craving that needs to be sated immediately this will be my go to recipe.

Delicious soup.

Ingredients

• 4 c. chicken broth, divided
• 1/8 tsp. ground ginger
• 2 Tbsp. chives or scallions, chopped
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 1 1/2 Tbsp. cornstarch
• 2 eggs
• 1 egg yolk

1. In a large saucepan, combine 3 1/4 cups chicken broth, salt, ginger, and chives.  Bring to a boil.
2. In a small bowl, combine remaining chicken broth and cornstarch.
3. In another bowl, whisk eggs and egg yolk together.  Slowly drizzle eggs into boiling broth.  (It will cook very quickly).  Whisk in the cornstarch mixture until soup reaches your desired consistency.  Enjoy.

Serves 4.
