Quick and Easy Egg Drop Soup
Quick and Easy Egg Drop Soup
Homemade chicken stock is the best for this. Also, if you can't locate any of
the mushroom types indicated in the recipe, crimini (aka: baby bellas) will do
just fine. Or, you can just leave them out all together.
Ginger is what makes the soup hot and spicy. Dial it down to 1/4 teaspoon if
you want a more mild soup.
Ingredients
4 cups chicken stock, homemade preferred, divided
1 tablespoon cornstarch
3/4 cup enoki mushrooms or sliced shiitake mushrooms
3 green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon soy sauce (use gluten-free soy sauce if cooking gluten-free)
Scant 1/2 teaspoon grated ginger
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
Measure out 1/2 cup of the stock and mix with the cornstarch until
dissolved.
Slowly pour in the beaten eggs while stirring the soup slowly. The egg
will spread out into ribbons.
Serve:
Turn off the heat and garnish with a few more chopped green onions.
Serve immediately.
