Ingredients:

Serving

2 1/2 cups fat-free chicken broth
1/2 cup water
1 inch fresh ginger, cut in 2-4 pieces
1 (14 3/4 oz) can creamed corn
1/4-1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
1/4 cup cold water
4 oz turkey ham, finely diced
1/2 tsp sesame oil
1 egg white, slightly beaten

Directions:

Combine broth, water and slices of fresh ginger over medium heat in a medium saucepan. Bring to slow boil and simmer for 10-15 minutes.
Remove ginger chunks.
Add corn (and cayenne if using) and heat to boil.
Meanwhile combine cornstarch and cold water.
Add cornstarch mixture to soup and boil for a few minutes until soup has thickened.
Add ham and heat through - shouldn't take long since its finely diced.
Remove from heat. Add sesame oil and then SLOWLY add egg white while stirring. Adding the egg white slowly will help create a pretty ribbon effect.
