Egg Drop Soup |
Date posted: 07/03/02 at 12:47:13 |
Egg Drop Soup: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 3 C. chicken broth 1 tsp. salt Dash of white pepper 1 medium green onion (with top), chopped 2 eggs, slightly beaten Heat broth, salt and pepper to rolling boil in 2-quart saucepan over high heat. (if broth is not heated to rolling boil, egg will not form threads.) Stir green onion into eggs. Pour egg mixture slowly into broth, stirring constantly with fork, until egg forms threads. 3 servings. This is a Chinese standard and among the simplest soups in the world to make. The only trick is to be sure the broth is at a full, rolling boil as you stir in the beaten eggs. This ensures that the soup's signature thin threads of cooked eggs float throughout. recipe~Leeann Chin
