Egg Drop Soup (Any Phase - only use whole egg for P3)

  • 1

Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 tsp water
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 small scallion, minced
  • 2 tsp finely chopped chives

Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, beat the egg with the water.

On medium-low heat, bring the broth to a simmer. Stir in the salt and scallions.

Continue to stir in a clockwise motion and very slowly slip the egg into the simmering broth. As you stir, the egg will coagulate and form thin threads.

*A great way to ensure that the egg slips in gradually is to prop a fork on the side of your pot with the tines pointing down. Then, pour the egg through the tines. This will give you those fine strands that you are familiar with at the restaurant!

Remove from the heat; pour soup into individual bowls and garnish with chives.
