Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups chicken broth (unsweetened, low-sodium)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • ½ tsp minced garlic
  • ½ tsp grated fresh ginger
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp chopped green onions (for garnish)
  • Optional: pinch of chili flakes

Equipment

  • 1 Medium saucepan or pot
  • 1 Whisk
  • 1 Ladle
  • 1 Measuring Cups & Spoons
  • 1 Small mixing bowl

Method
 

  1. Heat the Broth: In a medium saucepan, bring chicken broth to a gentle boil.
  2. Add Seasonings: Mix in the soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic and ginger. Let simmer for 2 minutes.
  3. Whisk the Eggs: Whisk the eggs in a small mixing bowl, furiously, until they are smooth and ever so slightly frothy.
  4. Create the Egg Ribbons: Reduce heat to low. Continue to whisk as you slowly pour the egg into the simmering broth, stirring in a circular motion with a fork or chopsticks.
  5. Season and Garnish: Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot in bowls garnished with green onions.

Notes

  • Ever whisk eggs before pouring them in for silkiest of ribbons.
  • Gently pour beaten eggs in, slowly, until each piece of egg becomes a strip and texture silky.
  • You can also add some shredded chicken for more protein.
  • Bone broth for extra nutrition.
  • Season to taste with soy sauce or coconut aminos.
