Ingredients
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch (optional)
- 2 teaspoons water (optional)
- 1 egg beaten
- 1 drop yellow food coloring (optional)
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives
- 1/8 teaspoon salt (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper (optional)
Instructions
-
Combine the chicken broth, soy sauce and sesame oil in a sauce pan and bring it to a boil.
-
If you want your soup a little thicker, this is where you'll use the cornstarch. Stir it together with the water so it dissolves, then pour it into the broth while it's still boiling.
-
Stir the broth gently as you pour in the egg. Add the yellow food coloring if you want more of a customary yellow color.
-
Season the soup with chives, and add salt and pepper to taste.
