Step 1

Set aside 1/2 cup chicken broth and mix with cornstarch to create a thin slurry. Heat the rest of the chicken broth in a medium saucepan over high heat with any add-ins you choose to include. I like to keep it pretty simple and only add in ground ginger!

Step 2

Once the broth is simmering, quickly stir in the cornstarch slurry. Allow 1-2 minutes for broth to thicken and come to a rolling boil.

Step 3

Have your beaten eggs ready to add in. This part needs to be done quickly! Remove broth from heat, immediately stir in a circle with a wooden spoon to create a whirlpool, and slowly pour in the eggs. If the broth whirlpool slows down too much, give it another quick stir in the same direction and add in the rest of the eggs.

Step 4

Top with any optional toppings you'd like, and enjoy!
