I love this soup when we are in Chinatown. I made this when I was home sick as an alternative to chicken noodle soup; it's great because it's easy and all ingredients are things you will likely have in your kitchen at any given time!

Ingredients For egg drop soup

  • 3 c
    water
  • 3
    chicken bouillon cubes
  • 2 Tbsp
    soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp
    cooking wine
  • 1 Tbsp
    flour
  • 1 Tbsp
    water
  • 2
    eggs
  • 1 Tbsp
    sesame oil; to add heat use hot sesame oil instead

How To Make egg drop soup

  • 1
    Boil the water, soy sauce, and wine. Add the bullion cubes when once water starts to boil and make sure to dissolve completely. Reduce heat to simmer.
  • 2
    Mix water and flour in a small cup and then add to soup; stir and continue to simmer for a few minutes (the small flour mixture helps the soup thicken a little).
  • 3
    Beat eggs in a small cup, slowly add eggs into soup while continuously stirring soup in one direction. Stir in sesame oil. Soup is ready to serve!
