    Delicious!!!.Thanks Emeril! 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.

    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.

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

    My kids love egg-drop soup. I tried this recipe with the spinach in it and they loved it, too. So...quick, easy, tasty for the whole family = five stars.

    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.

    before trying this recipe I bought my soup stalk in cans. But decided to try and make it all from scratch. It was easy to make, and the egg drop soup became my family favorate.

    Thanks Emeril!!!!!!
