Egg drop soup is often garnished with just a few sliced green onions, but this version uses a generous amount for a rich flavor. Whisked eggs are stirred into simmering broth to thicken the soup and create delicate ribbons. Ingredients:
3 cups fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth |
1 cup water |
1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions |
1/3 cup thinly sliced shiitake mushroom caps |
1 1/2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce |
1/4 teaspoon grated peeled fresh ginger |
2 large egg whites |
1 large egg |
dash of freshly ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Combine first 6 ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 3 minutes. 2. Combine egg whites and egg, stirring with a whisk. Pour egg mixture into simmering broth mixture; stir once. Cook 1 minute. Remove from heat; stir in pepper. Serve immediately. |
