Upscale Egg Drop Soup with Shiro-Dashi

My mom made this for my twins. I usually just eye-ball the ingredients, but I measured them and this was the best results. It's also great as a hangover cure.There's a lot of variation among shiro-dashi, so adjust the taste accordingly. For a clear soup base the ratio is 1:8.Add your preferred amount of wakame.If adding fu (dried wheat gluten), add after you pour the boiling water or else the fu will absorb all the shiro-dashi. I know from past mistakes. Recipe by Team yokin

I came up with a simple recipe for chicken tenders seasoned with shiro dashi!If you don't remove the excess oil in step 6, the chicken will be oily.You could also make this with other cuts of chicken instead of chicken tenders. Recipe by uzukaji

I wanted to pair the flavor of the shio-kombu with soup and beaten egg.There's really nothing special to it, but you should adjust the taste as it'll depend on the salt content of the umeboshi.You could also make the dashi stock with 600 ml of water and 1 teaspoon of dashi stock granules.

Most of us have had egg drop soup at a Chinese restaurant. I find the soup comforting but usually very thick and somewhat bland. I think this recipe is an improvement.

MY way of making egg drop soup

My dad spent a long time in Vietnam while in the military and absolutely loved the people and their food. When I would be home from school sick he would come home at lunch and make me egg drop soup. I can still see him in his green fatigues standing at the stove. Oh how I miss him. I pour my eggs a little faster because I like the chunks lol

When family wants egg drop soup I say no need to go out. This whips up quick and easy. You can enjoy it in original style or add anything like cooked shredded chicken, corn, peas. You are the chef and cooking artist. You create your own versions!

A favorite dish of King Rama IX, this egg soup is easy to make with just a few ingredients. Enjoy it hot with the aroma of sesame oil. If you use vegetable broth, your vegetarian friends can enjoy it too.

Quick, easy, delicious soup!

It honestly tastes a lot like egg and bacon soup, its really delicious and super easy to make. I give it 5/5 stars for sure.

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

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

I was given this recipe when I was suffering an awful stomach bug. It worked wonders and it is an inexpensive meal.

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.

Played with a simple recipe and came up with this.

You can add any kind of vegetable with miso soup. You could add tofu into this one if you like😋

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

I don't really like boiled gyoza, but I was intrigued by a commercial for soup gyoza I saw on TV, so I decided to add it to egg drop soup.There are only 4 gyoza in each serving, but swirling in the egg makes it a filling soup.After adding the egg, swirl the soup with chopsticks gently!Adding sesame oil makes it smell even better!We always buy gyoza that doesn't have a lot of garlic or garlic chives in it, so the seasoning is just right for us.Adjust the seasoning to your liking.

In this tamagotoji, I use tofu and onion, which are cooked with the dashi stock (dashi and soy sauce, sake, sugar and so on) and finished with beaten eggs poured over it. Besides this, Katsu-don (a bowl of rice topped with pork cutlet), Oyako-don (topped with chicken and egg), Ten-don(topped with tempura) are also served in the same way as this tamagotoji in many places.

I've been using a lot of shiro dashi of late. It is key to the flavoring and I love the umami it gives.Since asparagus in season is so delicious I wanted to create a simple dish.When sautéing the asparagus, brown it first, then steam to bring out the sweetness. Recipe by Mimato
