    It's strange how simple Egg Drop Soup really is to make! A few frozen peas/carrots help out for non-mushroom lovers! Also if it's too thin, just add a tad bit of a water/cornstarch mix. Add it slowly, it thickens fast. - 7/13/10

    Better than any restaurant egg drop soup I've had, and a fraction of the calories! - 8/13/12

    This was good. To get the right consistency, I added 1 Tbsp of cornstarch to the boiling broth before adding the eggs. I omitted the mushrooms as I don't like them. I also added about 1 tsp of golden mountain seasoning sauce (you can find it at Asian markets). Also good with rice noodles. - 3/1/12

    Really simple and tasty! I've used different recipes that call for vinegar and don't use mushrooms, but I think this one is better. - 4/10/11

    love this soup - 7/13/10

    Excellent! It helps to stir the broth as you drop in the eggs to make the wispy consistency of the "egg drops". I used fresh ginger instead of ground. It came out great. I will add 3 baby carrots finely chopped and let the mushrooms cook a little more in the broth before I drop the eggs next time. - 1/10/10

    i added spinach and some ramen noodles to make it a bit hardier, with the spinach it reminds me off seaweed soup, this would probably be even better if you added tofu. I also put in some finely minced celery and onion instead of the chives, it came out really good! - 8/5/09
