Soup Sunday- Egg Drop Soup



I wanted to make a soup to eat this week, but I did not have all of the ingredients I needed to make the recipe I had picked out. I had a race this morning, then lunch with a friend so there was no time to shop.

I had an idea to do a version of egg drop soup.  It is a simple soup and you probably have everything on hand.  I  made a few changes to the basic recipe adding a bit more spice with ginger, garlic and red pepper flakes.













3 cups chicken bone broth
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 teaspoons minced ginger
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
2 eggs beaten


Heat the broth in a stockpot over medium heat.  Add the soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, garlic and red pepper.  Mix together the cornstarch and water.  Add to the soup mixture.  Once the mixture comes to a boil, add the eggs by pouring into the soup in a thin stream.

Serves 4
