Feel free to experiment with different vegetable combinations, such as corn, edamame, or water chestnuts.

    I added some sliced mushrooms and a drizzle of sesame oil, and it was absolutely delicious!

  • Raina Baumbach

    I found that adding a small amount of cornstarch slurry (1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tsp water) to the broth before adding the egg helped to thicken the soup a little more.

  • Maurine Swift

    This recipe was so simple and quick! My kids loved helping me make it, and they especially enjoyed watching the egg transform into ribbons in the broth.

  • Adriana Denesik

    The broth was so flavorful, and the egg was perfectly cooked. I will definitely be making this again!
