Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings

water 500ml
egg 1~2 pieces
green onion a little
chives or lettuce a little
soy sauce or dark soy sauce 1/2 tablespoon
salt a little
black pepper a little
MSG (monosodium glutamate) a little
sesame oil 1/2 tablespoon

Recipe 🍳

Prepare finely chopped green onions and slice chives or lettuce into appropriate sizes.
Pour water into a pot and bring to a boil, then add a small amount of soy sauce to give it a light golden hue.
Add salt, black pepper, and MSG to adjust the base seasoning and enhance the savory flavor.
When the water is boiling vigorously, slowly pour in the beaten eggs in a circular motion to create soft egg ribbons.
Once the eggs float up, add the prepared green onions and vegetables, then reduce the heat.
Finish by drizzling sesame oil around the surface for a rich, aromatic touch.

Add soy sauce to water to color it, then bring to a boil.
Season with salt, pepper, and MSG.
When the water boils, gently pour in beaten eggs in a continuous line.
Add green onions and vegetables, then finish with sesame oil.

Cooking tips 💡

Use soy sauce primarily to color the broth—add only a few drops until the broth turns a light yellowish-brown, then stop.
Do not stir immediately after adding the eggs; wait until they gradually rise to prevent cloudiness and keep the broth clear.
Adding enoki mushrooms enhances texture and adds depth to the dish.
