Egg Drop Soup
Pin Recipe

This traditional Chinese soup is made by swirling beaten eggs into a hot broth, creating silky ribbons of cooked egg throughout the warm soup. It’s simple, comforting, and perfect for a chilly fall evening.

Ingredients

  • 3 Vital Farms Eggs
  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • ½ teaspoon white pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon sesame oil
  • salt, to taste
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced, white and green parts separated
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water, for slightly thicker broth

Instructions

  1. In a medium pot over medium heat add the broth, pepper, turmeric, ginger, sesame oil, salt, and the white parts of the green onion. Stir and bring to a gentle simmer.
  2. Slowly pour the cornstarch slurry in while stirring the broth until thickened. Turn heat down to medium-low.
  3. In a bowl with a spout, whisk the eggs until smooth. Slowly add the eggs into the broth in a thin stream. Stir gently in one direction with a chopstick to create delicate ribbons. This process should take 20 – 30 seconds to pour in all the eggs.
  4. Transfer to a soup bowl and garnish with the green parts of the green onion. Enjoy!
