- 4 cup chicken broth
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp cold water
- 3 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- Salt and white pepper, to taste
In a large saucepan, combine the chicken broth, soy sauce, and ground ginger. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with cold water to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the simmering broth to thicken it slightly.
Slowly drizzle the beaten eggs into the saucepan while stirring the soup in a circular motion. The eggs will cook immediately, creating delicate egg ribbons.
Remove the saucepan from the heat, and season the soup with salt and white pepper to taste. Garnish with thinly sliced green onions before serving.
