1x2x3x

For the Broth:

• 4 cup chicken or vegetable broth
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 piece of ginger, grated
• Salt and pepper to taste

For the Egg Drop:

• 2 large eggs
• 1 green onion, thinly sliced
• Salt and pepper to taste

For the Ramen:

• 2 pack ramen noodles (discard the seasoning packets)
• Sliced green onions, for garnish
• Optional toppings: sliced mushrooms, baby spinach, corn kernels, and bean sprouts

Instructions

 

• Prepare the Broth:

  In a large pot, heat the chicken or vegetable broth over medium-high heat. Stir in the soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Bring the broth to a gentle simmer. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
• Cook the Ramen Noodles:

  While the broth is simmering, cook the ramen noodles separately according to the package instructions. Drain the cooked noodles and set them aside.
• Whisk the Eggs:

  In a bowl, whisk the eggs until well combined. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and add the thinly sliced green onions. Mix gently.
• Egg Drop Technique:

  Once the broth is simmering, reduce the heat to low. While gently stirring the broth in a clockwise direction, slowly pour the beaten egg mixture into the pot in a thin, steady stream. The eggs will cook almost instantly, forming delicate ribbons in the soup. Turn off the heat.
• Assemble Your Bowl:

  Divide the cooked ramen noodles among serving bowls. Carefully ladle the hot egg drop broth over the noodles.
• Add Toppings (Optional):

  Customize your Egg Drop Ramen by adding your favorite toppings such as sliced mushrooms, baby spinach, corn kernels, or bean sprouts.
• Garnish and Serve:

  Garnish each bowl with additional sliced green onions.Serve your homemade Egg Drop Ramen piping hot and enjoy the comforting flavors!
