Preparation

Step 1

Soak the mushrooms in warm water to cover for 30 minutes; drain. Cut off and discard the stems and thinly slice the caps. Set aside.

In a large pot, bring the broth, ginger, and mushrooms to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium, add the corn, scallops, crabmeat, and peas, and cook until the scallops turn opaque, about 1 minute. Stir in the sesame oil and pepper. Add the cornstarch solution and cook, stirring, until the soup boils and thickens. Lightly beat the egg white in a bowl. Remove the pot from the heat; slowly drizzle in the egg white, stirring constantly, to form "egg flowers."

This recipe yields 6 to 8 servings.

Variation: If bay scallops are not available, sea scallops may be substituted; cut the sea scallops into smaller slices.
