I just failed epically at making Egg Drop soup. As in, legendarily epically. In retrospect, it makes sense that the yoke is not, in fact, what makes the soup so yellow at Oriental Gardens, but at the time, it made sense. Basically, I ended up with scrambled eggs in chicken stock with chunks of cornstarch floating around. Not delicious.
But I remain optimistic! I eat enough Egg Drop at Oriental Gardens (the local Chinese place Kim and I go to so frequently, we don't even have to tell them what we want) that I should be able to figure out how to make the stuff. We have more chicken stock, more eggs, and I care enough about this thing to dedicate some serious time. Yeah, Egg Drop, it's that important.
