Ingredients

Scale

Soup Base

  • 32 oz chicken broth or chicken bone broth (4 cups)
  • 1 tablespoon tamari or coconut aminos (or soy sauce)
  • 3 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • optional – red pepper flakes or sriracha sauce

Eggs and Garnish

  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 green onions, sliced

Instructions

  1. Heat the broth: In a medium pot, combine the chicken broth, tamari sauce, grated ginger, sesame oil, and garlic salt. Heat over medium-high heat until the broth begins to boil. Then reduce heat to low and let it simmer gently.
  2. Beat the eggs: While the broth is heating, crack the eggs into a small bowl and beat them well until the yolks and whites are fully blended.
  3. Create egg ribbons: Stir the simmering broth continuously in one direction. Slowly pour the beaten eggs into the broth while stirring to form delicate, silky egg ribbons.
  4. Add green onions and season: Stir in the sliced green onions. Adjust the seasoning by adding salt and pepper to taste. If desired, sprinkle red pepper flakes or add a dash of sriracha for a spicy kick.
  5. Serve: Ladle the egg drop soup into 2 to 4 bowls and enjoy immediately while warm.

Notes

  • Use fresh ginger for best flavor and health benefits.
  • For a vegetarian version, substitute chicken broth with vegetable broth and tamari for a gluten-free soy sauce alternative.
  • Slowly pouring eggs while stirring is key to forming the characteristic egg ribbons.
  • Adjust tamari or soy sauce quantity to manage sodium level.
  • Serve immediately as the egg strands can dissolve if left too long.
