Name: One-Egg Egg Drop Soup
Ingredients: 1 egg; 0.25 teaspoon salt; 2 tablespoons tapioca flour; 0.25 cup cold water; 4 cups chicken broth; 0.125 teaspoon ground ginger; 0.125 teaspoon minced fresh garlic; 2 tablespoons chopped green onion; 0.25 teaspoon Asian (toasted) sesame oil; 1 pinch white pepper

Ingredients

1 egg
0.25 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons tapioca flour
0.25 cup cold water
4 cups chicken broth
0.125 teaspoon ground ginger
0.125 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
2 tablespoons chopped green onion
0.25 teaspoon Asian (toasted) sesame oil
1 pinch white pepper

Steps

Beat the egg and salt together in a bowl until well mixed. In a separate bowl, combine the tapioca flour with the cold water and stir to dissolve.
Bring the chicken broth, ginger, and garlic to a full rolling boil, remove from the heat, and stir in the dissolved tapioca starch. Boil until the soup has thickened and is no longer cloudy, about 1 minute; remove from the heat. Pour the egg into the soup in a thin line, and gently stir the egg in a figure 8 shape, making sure not to overmix the egg too much. Sprinkle the soup with the chopped onions, sesame oil, and white pepper, and serve.
