Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/2 C Water
  • 3 Chicken Bouillon Cubes
  • 3 Tbsp Cornstarch
  • 1 Large Egg, Beaten
  • Dash of Sesame Oil (optional)
  • Dash of Soy Sauce (optional)
  • Scallions, for garnish
  • Wonton Strips, for garnish (I just get mine in my local grocery store, near the salad toppings)
  • Salt and Pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

  • Add Bouillon Cubes and Cornstarch, while water is still cold and whisk to stir.
  • Bring first three ingredients to a boil. The second it starts to boil, turn down, and with your whisk stirring in the boiling water, slowly pouring beaten egg in, until the egg resembles ribbons somewhat. 
  • Ladle into bowl, and garnish with scallions and wonton strips. Salt and pepper to taste, but taste the soup before adding salt. Because of the bouillon it usually already has enough.
  • Enjoy!
