Restaurant Style Egg Drop Soup image

This Egg Drop soup is born from a love of the soup and MANY trips to my favorite Chinese restaurant (asking them many questions) resulting in this variation. Compare it to your local restaurant...The simplicity is the key. Soup can be re-heated or frozen and re-heated.

RICE AND EGG SOUP

Rice and Egg Soup image

This is a meal in a bowl! I got this from the New York Times magazine. It is adapted from and similar to the Japanese dish, zousui. You can use any kind of broth and any kind of rice, though the starchier the rice, the thicker the soup will be. Add cooked veggies or pieces of meat for a heartier dish. Prep time does not include cooking the rice.
