Ingredients

  • 6 cups chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions
  • 1/4 cup chiffonade spinach leaves
  • 4 shiitake mushrooms, stems removed, wiped clean, and thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • Pinch finely ground white pepper
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten

Directions

In a medium saucepan, bring the stock to a simmer. Add 6 tablespoons of the green onions, the spinach, mushrooms, soy and white pepper. Return to a bare simmer and cook for 3 minutes. Stirring with a fork or chopstick, gradually add the eggs in a slow steady stream. Cook until the eggs are set, stirring to create shreds or ribbons of the eggs, 1 minute.

Remove from the heat. Ladle into bowls, garnish with the remaining 2 tablespoons of green onions, and serve immediately.

    Delicious - just add a drop of sesame oil for more flavor

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    Loved this recipe - very easy. I also added some storebought vegetarian potstickers to the broth and finished with just a... few drops of toasted sesame oil. I think the sesame oil gives it that little kick that some people think is missing.Read more

    Disappointed

    I found it kind of bland too. How do the Chinese restaurants really make it?

    I add the lightly beaten egg seasoned with a drop or two of sesame oil OFF the heat. Gently stir it in with a fork and then... serve. Provides a better result taste and presentation wise.Read more
