Recipe Tips
For a thicker soup, add an extra tablespoon of cornstarch. For a thinner soup, add an extra cup of chicken broth. For a spicier soup, add a teaspoon of chili flakes. To make the egg ribbons, stir the soup in a circular motion when you add the eggs. This will create thin ribbons of egg throughout the soup. If you don’t have an Instant Pot, you can make this soup on the stove top in a large pot.
