- Reduce the heat to a simmer and gently stir in the green onions.
- Slowly pour the beaten eggs into the simmering broth while stirring constantly to create egg ribbons.
- Season the soup with white pepper and serve hot. Enjoy!
Wonton egg drop soup is a classic Chinese dish that combines the delicate flavors of wontons and the comforting warmth of egg drop soup. The history of this dish can be traced back to the Guangdong province in southern China, where it was created by innovative chefs seeking to combine the rich flavors of wontons with the soothing simplicity of egg drop soup. Today, this dish can be found in Chinese restaurants around the world, but some of the best versions can still be found in Guangdong and Hong Kong. The key to a delicious wonton egg drop soup lies in the quality of the wontons, which are typically filled with a mixture of seasoned pork and shrimp, and the perfectly cooked eggs that are gently swirled into the hot broth. For a unique twist on this classic dish, some chefs add a splash of rice vinegar or a sprinkle of sesame oil to enhance the flavors. Whether enjoyed as a starter or a main course, wonton egg drop soup continues to delight diners with its harmonious blend of flavors and textures.
