I actually think it could use a little more ginger, and it turned out awesome! I can't wait to have the leftovers for dinner tomorrow! Even my fiance, who isn't a fan of soup, said it was pretty good (rave review for him).

My husband loved this, and although it did taste just fine, it does not taste like "restaurant style egg drop soup"... more like chicken broth with egg.

We loved it! This is my comfort food when I am sick and I will never go out again. I have strep throat and decided to give this recipe a whirl. It was wonderful!

Yum, yum, yum! I think I may have overstirred because my egg looked more like a shredded Kleenex than drops, but it tasted right-on. Like other reviewers, I added the cornstarch and let it thicken before pouring in the egg. Left out the salt and added a few drops of soy sauce and toasted sesame oil in each bowl, which gave it a great flavor. It reheated well for lunch the next day too...this definitely hit the spot for a late-night Chinese craving!

I had to try the egg drop soup simply to see what would happen if I stirred it in a COUNTER-clockwise direction rather than a clockwise direction like some of the previous reviews advised. I'm still confused by that :), does it matter what continent you're on?? In any case, the result was still a decent soup! I didn't have any chicken broth so I made it with water and added a chicken bullion cube a the end. As for whether the eggs are stringy or not I was under the impression it depends on how fresh the eggs are rather than whether you add them before or after the corn starch but I could be wrong...

This is a perfectly fabulous recipe as written; however, for the second go-round, I used extra chives & extra egg whites for more intense flavor & texture.

This was very tasty! Tastes just like the real thing from an authentic chinese restaurant. I added a little bit of soy sauce to mine because I like the flavor it gives. Also, I think I would prefer green onions to chives.

My 9 year old loves egg drop soup, so I gave it a try. It was very good, the only thing I did differently was to skip the salt, & add a chicken bullion cube. My daughter gobbled it up and asked for more.

Tastes like the good chinese restaurants! I added of combination frozen peas, corn, and carrots. I think I stirred the eggs too much, it looked more like a cream soup then ribbons of eggs.

I made broth from boullion and so omitted the salt. It came out great. The family loved it so I have to double the recipe next time because there was not enough.

Love it. It may not be quite as good as my favorite restaurant Egg Drop Soup but it is the best I have found on any recipe website and I have looked for a long time. I prepared this with one of the chinese shrimp dishes from this site and my company loved both dishes.
