Paleo Egg Drop Soup
Yields 2 servings as a meal, 4 servings as a side
Ingredients:
- 1 tbsp. (15 ml) avocado oil
- 2 large cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp. minced fresh ginger
- 3 scallions, sliced thin, whites and greens separated
- 1 tbsp. (8 g) tapioca starch, to thicken (optional)
- 4 cups (960 ml) chicken broth
- 1 tbsp. (15 ml) coconut aminos
- 2 tsp. (10 ml) toasted sesame oil
- 4 large eggs, well-beaten
- Fine Himalayan salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
Method:
- Heat a medium pot or saucepan over medium heat until hot.
- Add the oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan.
- Add the garlic, ginger, and white parts of the scallions and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- If using tapioca starch to thicken the soup, take 1 cup (240 ml) of the broth and dissolve the starch in it.
- Pour the broth, coconut aminos, and toasted sesame oil into the pan. Bring the broth to a gentle simmer, and then immediately remove the pot from the heat.
- Use a spoon to stir the broth continuously in one direction while pouring the eggs into the broth in a thin, steady stream.
- Using a measuring cup with a spout is helpful for pouring the eggs. This technique will yield soft, creamy egg ribbons in the soup.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately, and garnish each bowl with the scallion greens.
