    Recipe Introduction


    ’`‰Ô“’

    List of Ingredients




    4 cups chicken broth (or stock)
    2 large eggs (lightly beaten)
    1 to 2 spring onions (finely chopped)
    1/4 teaspoon white pepper
    Salt (to taste)
    Optional: few drops sesame oil

    Recipe



    Gather the ingredients.

    In a wok or saucepan, bring the 4 cups of chicken broth or stock to a boil.

    Very slowly, pour in the lightly beaten eggs in a steady stream. To make shreds, stir the egg rapidly in a clockwise direction for 1 minute. To make thin streams or ribbons, gently stir the eggs in a clockwise direction until they form.

    Season the soup with white pepper, salt, and sesame oil.

    Pour into bowls and garnish with spring onion.

    How to Thicken the Soup: In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix together 1 to 2 tablespoons cornflour/cornstarch or potato starch with 1/2 cup of water until smooth. Slowly stir the paste into the chicken stock before adding the eggs. Proceed with the rest of the directions.
