Preparation:
Preparation time: 5 min
Cooking time: 10 min
Serving: 4
Ingredients:
Rice
● 4 cups chicken broth
● 3 green onions, chopped, white and green parts separated
● 1 slice ginger
● 1/4 teaspoon white pepper powder
● 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt (or to taste)
● 4 teaspoons cornstarch
● 1/8 teaspoon turmeric powder, for the yellow color (Optional)
● 4 large eggs, beaten (Footnote 1)
● 2 teaspoons sesame oil
Instructions:
- Combine the chicken broth, the white part of the green onion, and ginger in a small pot. Cook over high heat until brought to a boil. Turn to a low heat and let the soup reduce to a simmer.
- Combine cornstarch, white pepper, turmeric, sea salt, and 2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl. Whisk until cornstarch is completely dissolved. Swirl into the soup and mix well with a spatula.
- To add eggs, hold a fork (or two chopsticks slightly apart) across the top of a small bowl, and drizzle the egg mixture slowly through the gaps into the soup. Let the eggs set for a few seconds, then stir gently to break up the egg into the desired-sized pieces.
- Drizzle sesame oil and sprinkle with the green part of the green onion.
- Serve warm.
