2. 2

   Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to a simmer.

   Ongeveer 5 min

3. 3

   While the broth simmers, whisk together the cornstarch and water in a small bowl to create a slurry.

   Ongeveer 1 min

   Tip van de kok: Ensure there are no lumps in your cornstarch slurry for a smooth soup.

   Gradually drizzle the beaten eggs into the simmering soup in a thin stream, stirring gently in one direction to create fine egg ribbons.
