# Egg Flower Soup
:::info
It's pretty good regardless of the exact ratios. Also I\'m a fan of excess pepper when sick.

The classic egg drop soup. Tastes pretty similar to the store, and super easy to make!
```mdx title="Ingredients"
4 cups chicken stock
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon sugar
1/8 teaspoon while pepper
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1/3 cup water (to mix with cornstarch)
3 eggs lightly beaten
1 scallion
1/2 teaspoon shaoxing cooking wine (optional)
1/4 teaspoon msg (optional)
1/2 teaspoon turmeric (optional)
```

```md title="Instructions"
1. Bring the chicken stock to a simmer in a pot.
2. Stir in sesame oil, salt, sugar, white pepper. Adjust to taste at this point.
3. If using, also stir in the msg. cooking wine, and turmeric.
4. Mix the cornstarch and water together to make a slurry.
5. Before the solution settles, stir the soup continuously and drizzle in the slurry until the soup is the desired thickness.
6. Lightly beat the egg so that the egg and yolk don't completely mix together.
7. Stir with a ladle and slowly drizzle in the egg, making ribbons in the soup.
8. Top with scallions and extra white pepper if desired.

### Notes
Stir SLOWLY when adding in the egg for the best results. Stirring quickly yields a pretty homogenous result.
Also give the cooking wine addition a try (thanks, mom)
