Ingredients
- 4 cups prepared chicken stock, plus 2 tablespoons
- 1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 green onions, chopped, including ends
- Salt and white pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Bring soup stock, grated ginger and soy sauce to a boil. In a small cup, make a slurry by combining the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of chicken stock. Stir until dissolved. Slowly pour in the cornstarch mixture while stirring the stock, until thickened. Reduce heat to a simmer. Pour in the eggs slowly while stirring the soup in the same direction. The egg will spread and feather. Turn off the heat and add the green onions. Season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.

Reviews
This is so so good and it’s also a base to make it your own. I used what I had on hand….. chopped collard greens, a little fish sauce, coriander. Thank you!
Quick, easy, and absolutely delicious!!! This has become my go-to recipe for my egg from soup cravings
A good recipe all in all but to make it more to Asian tradition add 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil, 1/8 teaspoon sugar, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric, 3 tablespoons cornstarch, 3 eggs, and an extra tablespoon soy sauce.

By far the best egg drop soup that I’ve tried homemade. Excellent flavor. Added additional soy sauce for flavor.
Tasty
We really enjoyed the soup, but the ginger was maybe throwing it off for me. I’m gonna try saffron next, since someone advised it. But definitely a keeper. Thanks Chef!
Very bone warming and full of flavor.
Very good. Use good quality chicken bone broth and added grated clove of garlic, a teaspoon of sugar, half teaspoon sesame oil and chives and green onions.
