This recipe is a good base. I added a litte sesame oil and soy sauce. I think that I will use a homemade stock the next time. I think that is the key to good egg drop soup.

This was a good base,but I added a few things to make it taste more like what I'm used to. I added a few drops of sesame oil, 2 eggs, & 2-3 sliced criminis. I fried a small white onion in stir fry oil until very crisp & topped each bowl w/them. Made all the difference!

This is a great base for egg drop soup like restaurants have. To make it a little more, here's what I did differently: 1. Added 1Tbs of soy sauce and a few dashes of ginger (about 1/4-ish tsp.) 2. I also wanted some of the sesame oil flavor in most egg drop soups, but I can never seem to get the ratio right. In order to do this, I actually cooked some chicken cut into matchstick strips and cooked that in a bit of sesame oil, then added that to the soup. I'd say a teaspoon of oil roughly. Also MAKE SURE you add your cornstarch BEFORE eggs, otherwise, the eggs get all puffy instead of stringy like restaurant soup. I'll definitely be making this again. Perfect for our snowy winter evenings :) Even the little one loves it.

Excellent!! I took the suggestions of other cooks and added sesame oil, soy sauce & pepper. I also added an extra egg. It is key to slightly beat the egg before and add it when the broth is boiling. Simple & delicious!! Thanks

Not only did it separate, but I followed the directions to a T (sans green onion as I'm allergic) but it tasted like chicken broth. I will not be making this again.
