soup is fresh chicken stock and is typically thickened
with corn or potato starch. Sliced button mushrooms,
green onion and spinach are the standard vegetables
and the soup is seasoned with salt and pepper. Tofu
may also be added. The ingredients may be sautéed
in oil prior to being added to the chicken stock. As
its name would suggest, the soup has whisked eggs
dropped into the broth, which look like white ribbons.
Chinese soups are often garnished with fried noodles
or wonton strips.
