Egg Drop Soup – Restaurant Style

Ingredients:

• 4 cups low sodium vegetable broth *because of the meatless Mondays theme, we used veg. broth…chicken broth works well!*
• 1/4 tsp ground ginger
• 1 tsp minced garlic
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp onion powder
• 2 TB cornstarch
• 2 eggs
• 2 egg yolks

Directions:

• Set aside 1/2 cup broth
• Pour the rest of the broth into a medium saucepan along with the spices…bring to a rapid boil.
• In another bowl, stir together the 1/2 cup broth and cornstarch until smooth…set aside.
• In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and yolks until creamy.
• Drizzle forkfuls of the eggs into the boiling broth, they should cook and get silky right away.
• After the eggs have been added, pour the cornstarch mixture into the soup gradually while stirring, until desired thickness has been reached.

Enjoy!
