Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water and stir until well blended. Set aside.
  2. Bring the chicken broth and water to a boil in a pot. Add the tomato, white pepper, and salt, then thicken the soup with the cornstarch mixture. Stir the soup with a ladle and turn off the heat.
