How to Make Seaweed and Egg Drop Soup

Estimated Cooking Difficulty: ★★

Essential Ingredients and Tools

  • Eggs
  • Dried seaweed (laver)
  • Scallions (green onions)
  • Water
  • Salt
  • Oil
  • Shrimp (optional, based on personal preference)

Measurements

For 1 serving:

  • 10g of dried seaweed (use more if you prefer a stronger seaweed flavor)
  • 2 eggs
  • 2g of salt

Instructions

  • Soak the dried seaweed in clean water for 15 minutes, then drain and set aside.
  • Heat a pot, add 1.5 liters of water, 5ml of oil, and 2g of salt. Once the water boils, add the seaweed.
  • After the seaweed has boiled for 3 minutes, slowly pour in the beaten eggs. Remove from heat after 30 seconds.
  • Sprinkle with chopped scallions and simmer on low heat for 20 seconds.
  • Turn off the heat. Just before serving, add a few drops of sesame oil. Some people also add a little dried shrimp for extra flavor.

Additional Tips

  • Once the water boils, reduce the heat and pour the beaten eggs around the center of the boiling water. To keep the egg ribbons tender, cover the pot with a lid, turn off the heat, let it sit for half a minute, then uncover.
  • If you prefer a thicker consistency, add 2g of cornstarch.
