Today, we are making Dan Hua Tang (蛋花汤). It’s translated as egg flower soup, and also known as egg drop soup. This is the simplest recipe in Chinese cuisine so you should definitely try to make it at home. Today, I am going to show you a few different versions.

1. Basic egg drop soup:
This is the most basic egg drop soup that you will find in your local Chinese restaurants, and you have probably ordered it many times already. Now you can make it at home with just a few ingredients.

Ingredients
3 cups of chicken stock
a few white part of the spring onion
a few slices of ginger
1.5 tbsp of cornstarch + 3 tbsp of water
2 eggs well beaten
1/2 tsp of salt or to taste
1/4 tsp of white pepper
Some diced green part of the spring onion for garnish

2. Tomato egg drop soup
In China, egg drop soup is more than just egg and broth. We usually make it versatile by adding different ingredients to it: such as tomato, spinach, seaweed, meat slices, and Goji berry (枸杞). Let me show you how to make the tomato egg drop soup.


Ingredients
2 tomatoes peeled and cut into chunks
1 clove of garlic grated
1 tsp of ginger finely diced
1/2 tbsp of diced white of the spring onion
2 tsp of cooking oil
1 tsp of salt or to taste
1 tsp of sugar
3 cups of chicken stock
1.5 tbsp of cornstarch + 3 tbsp of water
2 eggs well beaten
diced spring onion for garnish


3. Seaweed egg drop soup
It is basically just adding a bunch of dried seaweed at the end of any version of egg drop soup. It is super popular in China; that’s why I want to share it with you. It smells pungent and it has an umami taste which adds a different element to the dish. You can buy this online or at your local Asian grocery stores; it comes in round package. You don’t need that much, just rip a handful off and throw it into the soup. It cooks super-fast, like 10 seconds.
