❓ FAQs

1. Why is my egg drop soup cloudy?

Too much stirring or pouring eggs too quickly can cause cloudiness.

2. Can I make this soup thicker?

Add an extra 1–2 tsp cornstarch to your slurry.

3. Can I make it vegetarian?

Yes — use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.

4. Can I add noodles?

Absolutely — vermicelli or ramen noodles work well.

5. How do I get perfect egg ribbons?

Keep the heat low and pour the eggs in a very thin stream.
