Ingredients
4 cups chicken broth
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon ground ginger
3 scallions, chopped
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for a thicker consistency)
Instructions
In your saucepan, bring the chicken broth to a gentle simmer over medium heat. The saucepan's even heat distribution ensures every bit of flavor is extracted from the broth.
Stir in the ground ginger and chopped scallions, letting them infuse their aromatic flavors into the broth.
If you prefer a thicker consistency, mix the cornstarch with a few tablespoons of cold water to create a slurry. Gradually stir it into the simmering broth until the soup thickens slightly.
Slowly pour the beaten eggs into the saucepan in a thin stream while gently stirring the broth in a circular motion. This creates delicate ribbons of cooked egg throughout the soup.
Add salt and pepper to taste, then give the soup one final stir. Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with extra scallions if desired, and serve immediately.
