Egg soup is a comforting, protein-rich dish commonly associated with Chinese cuisine, though variations exist in other culinary traditions. Typically made with beaten eggs gently stirred into simmering broth, it creates soft, silky ribbons of egg throughout the soup. Ingredients often include chicken or vegetable stock, green onions, ginger, and soy sauce, with optional additions like tofu, vegetables, or sesame oil for enhanced flavor and texture. Egg soup is a nutritious choice, offering high-quality protein from the eggs, which support muscle repair and overall health. Depending on the recipe, it can be low in fat and calories, making it suitable for lighter meals. However, sodium levels can be high, especially with soy sauce or prepackaged broth, so opting for low-sodium versions can make it a healthier option. Versatile and quick to prepare, egg soup is both nourishing and flavorful, fitting well into various dietary preferences.
