• 1 egg yolk
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch

I just made this, except I had to substitute flour for cornstarch. I'll probably choose to use less ginger next time but this was really good, thank you for the instructions. :)

When i tried this it cooked the egg too fast and made it liek scrambled eggs. Any tips?

Egg drop soup usually has bits of egg (similar to scrambled egg) in the broth. You might try letting it cool a little before adding the egg if you prefer a different consistency.

ok, thanks. I'm just used to it like the chinese restaurant's version. But they make theirs with chicken broth.
