🇨🇳 Chinese

Silky, comforting, and ready in minutes, this classic Egg Drop Soup combines a fragrant savory broth with delicate ribbons of egg for a simple yet elegant starter. Bright ginger and a splash of Shaoxing wine lift the flavor, while a touch of sesame oil and fresh scallions finish it with aroma and color. It's the perfect quick soup when you want something warm and satisfying without fuss.

Method

1

In a small bowl whisk together the Cornstarch and cold Water until smooth to make a slurry; set aside.

Stir in the Shaoxing Wine and season the broth with Salt and a pinch of White Pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

Slowly whisk the cornstarch slurry into the simmering broth and cook for 1–2 minutes until the soup slightly thickens and becomes glossy.

Beat the Eggs lightly in a bowl. With the soup at a gentle simmer, slowly pour the beaten eggs in a thin stream while stirring the soup in one direction to create fine silky ribbons.
