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.

I made this soup for my boyfriend and his parents! they loved it, especially his Mom because she kept saying "outstanding"!! so I kept saying "thanks Emeril", plus it was a very easy to make soup, REALLY!! I also think the shiitake mushrooms added lots of flavor to it!

    Excellent. We had to add more salt because we used homemade chicken stock and used button mushrooms because I did not have shitake mushrooms. and omited the spinach because I did not have them. I added store bought frozen chicken potstickers to make it a little more hearty of a meal. We absolutly loved it and will make this again.

    This was amazingly quick and required very little effort or ingredients. I added a bit more spinach and mushrooms than the recipe called for and it was really fantastic. This soup is a great base ofr any other add-ins. I'll definately be trying it wil a little shredded, poached chicken, glass noodles, ginger, red pepper flakes...infininate possibilities. You need to use a good stock..the organic Imagine or Basic stocks are great chicken flavor with not too much salt.
