Deluxe Egg Drop Soup

Ingredients

• 4 cups chicken broth, divided
• 1/4 cup matchstick-cut carrots
• 1 tablespoon matchstick-cut fresh ginger
• 2 green onions, thinly sliced with white and green parts separated
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1/2 cup shredded cabbage
• 2 eggs, beaten
• Salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Heat 3 1/4 cups chicken broth in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add carrots, ginger, and white parts of green onion; bring soup to a boil.

Whisk remaining 3/4 cup broth and cornstarch together in a bowl until dissolved.

Stir cabbage and green parts of green onion into the soup. Drop beaten egg, a spoonful at a time, into soup, stirring after each addition to prevent clumping. Stir cornstarch mixture into soup and season with salt and pepper. Stir soup until cornstarch thickens the soup, about 2 minutes.
