Easy Egg Drop Soup is a comforting Chinese classic, known in the UK as sweetcorn egg soup. This Easy Egg Drop Soup recipe combines homemade chicken stock, sweetcorn and shiitake mushrooms with silky ribbons of seasoned egg swirled gently into the broth. The result is light yet deeply savoury, with natural sweetness from the corn and beautiful wisps of egg throughout.
The key to perfect egg drop soup is technique. The broth should be gently thickened before the egg is added, then taken off the heat so the egg forms delicate ribbons instead of scrambling.
