Method
Preparing the Broth
Heat the Broth
In a medium pot, bring the chicken broth to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Add Flavorings
Stir in the grated fresh ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes to let the flavors combine.
Thicken the Broth
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water until smooth. Slowly add this mixture to the broth while stirring continuously. Continue cooking until the broth thickens slightly.
Adding Eggs and Finishing Touches
Create Egg Ribbons
Reduce the heat to low and slowly drizzle the beaten eggs into the hot broth while stirring gently. This will create delicate egg ribbons.
Season the Soup
Taste the soup and add salt and white pepper to your preference.
Garnish and Serve
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
