Fluffy Egg-Drop Soup with Boiled Chicken Broth
This was an egg-drop soup that I made as baby food for my children, but they still love it even now that they are grown-ups. When I don't have cooking liquid from boiling chicken, I use Chinese chicken stock granules. Making the eggs fluffy is key to the delicious taste of this soup!
The katakuriko slurry can be made by dissolving the katakuriko in twice the amount of water - water (2 tablespoons) + katakuriko (1 tablespoon). Add it gradually and slowly while stirring the soup (do not add it all at once) until reaching your preferred thickness. You don't need to use the whole amount. Add the eggs after the soup has thickened. Recipe by Heartful Kitchen Rei

- 2
Once it comes to a rapid boil, season with pepper and reduce heat to low. Add the katakuriko slurry (see Hints) to thicken the soup. The key is to add it gradually.
- 3
While stirring the soup gently with a ladle, gradually pour in the beaten egg. Make sure you pour in the eggs while the soup is steadily bubbling.
- 4
If the temperature of the soup is too low, or if you stir it too vigorously, the soup will be cloudy. If you add too much of the egg all at once, or do not stir the soup, the egg will become lumpy.
- 5
Once the egg sets, turn off the heat immediately. Do not bring it to a rapid boil.

Fluffy Egg Drop Soup with Corn & Onion Fluffy Egg Drop Soup with Corn & Onion
I wanted to make a Chinese style soup to go with dinner one day, and I thought of onion and corn as good additions that would cook up quickly. My husband is not a huge fan of soup, but he eats this one right up, so I've been making it ever since. I can make it with ingredients I always have in stock, so it saves money too.By thickening the soup, the egg disperses nice and evenly. Another point to making the egg fluffy is to add a little water to it beforehand!! Also, turn the heat off right away to prevent the egg from becoming tough. For 2 servings. Recipe by Eisakun -
Easy 3-minute Egg Drop Soup with Fluffy Eggs Easy 3-minute Egg Drop Soup with Fluffy Eggs
This is the egg drop soup I created after many visits to a Chinese restaurant.This is a super easy 3-minute recipe! My husband also loves egg drop soup so I made this at his request.It's important you add the egg after the soup has reached a rapid boil. Stir immediately after you add it, lightly breaking up the larger clumps. Use brands that have 435 g of canned corn, either Aohata or Tokachi. I use YOUKI brand for the chicken stock granules.

Easy Egg Drop Soup Easy Egg Drop Soup
This recipe really is simple. It's light tasing and delightful to boot.I do not add any salt to this recipe for two reasons.1. I use salted broth anyway so I don't feel the need.2. Adding salt when using cornstarch can result in the dish actually NOT thickening up properly. Especially if the salt is added after the cornstarch.

School Lunch Style Egg Drop Soup School Lunch Style Egg Drop Soup
I loved the egg drop soup served at elementary school and made this soup reminiscing about it. Now this is our dinner staple.Eggs can be hard and tough in texture when over cooked or reheated. Adding katakuri starch slurry makes the eggs light and fluffy, even when reheated.I use slurry not to thicken the soup but to keep the egg texture. Recipe by Hamumaki -
