Soup Base

Method

Prepare Soup Base

  1. 1

    Combine the Liquid Ingredients

    In a large pot, combine the chicken broth and water. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Add Flavorings

    Stir in soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Allow the mixture to simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Thicken the Soup

    In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with a few tablespoons of cold water to create a slurry. Gradually stir this slurry into the pot, allowing the soup to thicken.

  4. 4

    Add the Eggs

    Beat the eggs in a separate bowl. Slowly drizzle the beaten eggs into the simmering soup while stirring gently to create ribbons of egg.
