Egg Drop Soup is a classic dish rooted in Chinese cuisine, offering a simple yet flavorful combination of ingredients. The traditional recipe features lightly whisked eggs, drizzled into hot chicken or vegetable broth, creating delicate, ribbon-like patterns. Common additions include scallions, tofu, mushrooms, and seasonings like soy sauce or white pepper, enhancing its taste and nutritional profile. This soup is low in calories and fat, making it a light and hydrating choice, while eggs provide a source of high-quality protein and essential nutrients. However, the sodium content can be elevated due to broth or soy sauce, so opting for low-sodium versions can make it a more heart-healthy option. Its warm and comforting nature makes it a favorite for cold days or when seeking a soothing meal.
