100 Calorie Egg Drop Soup!

100 calorie egg drop soup!

You will need:

1 egg (75 cal)

1 cup of chicken broth (10 cal)*

1 tsp of cornstarch (15 cal)

1/4 tsp powdered ginger (0 cal)

salt to taste

pepper to taste

optional (but HIGHLY recommended): 1/2 tsp sesame oil (25 cal) (total recipe 125)

Instructions:

Whisk the egg and set aside. In a small pot, stir together broth, cornstarch, and ginger BEFORE TURNING ON THE HEAT! Make sure they are thoroughly combined. It will look cloudy, but that’s okay.

Bring the mixture to a light boil. While boiling, stir the mixture clockwise to form a whirlpool. Slowly poor the whisked egg into the swirling broth while continuing to stir. This is what makes the cool egg ribbons! Stir and let cook for around 30 seconds to a minute. Remove from heat and add sesame oil (if using), along with salt and pepper.

*i’m a vegetarian so I used vegetable broth, which worked perfectly fine!
