Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Bring the chicken broth, grated ginger, and soy sauce to a boil in a large saucepan Taste, and season with sea salt and white pepper, to taste.
  2. In a small cup, make a slurry by combining the cornstarch and a little bit of chicken stock. Stir until dissolved. Slowly pour in the cornstarch mixture while stirring the broth, until thickened. Reduce heat to a simmer.
  3. Pour in the eggs slowly while stirring the soup in the same direction. The egg will spread and feather.
