Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 4 scallions (divided into white and green portions)
Method
- Using a sharp knife, finely chop the scallions, separating the white and green portions.
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them until they reach a smooth, fluid-like consistency.
- In a separate bowl, combine the cornstarch and water. Whisk until fully dissolved and smooth.
- Pour the chicken stock into a pot and add the white portion of the scallions.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
- Once boiling, slowly pour in the cornstarch slurry while stirring continuously.
- Allow the stock to thicken, creating a silky, ribbon-like consistency.
- Return the soup to a boil.
- Slowly pour in the whisked eggs in a thin stream, stirring constantly to create delicate egg ribbons.
- Stir in the salt, white pepper, and the green portion of the scallions.
- Mix well to ensure everything is evenly combined.
