Egg drop soup

Also called: egg drop soup, egg-drop soup, egg drop soop, anda drop soup, anda soup, egg & corn soup (variant), eggdropsoup

Egg drop soup is that warm, comforting bowl you want on a rainy evening or when you’re feeling a little under the weather. Light chicken stock, softly swirled egg, and a bit of cabbage-onion goodness make it taste like something between a home-style soup and a cosy hostel-mess fix.

Key Takeaway: One soup bowl of Egg drop soup (250g) contains 66.5 kcal, 32.3g protein, 2.8g carbs, and 33.8g fat. This soup is gentle on the stomach because it’s mostly warm broth with soft-cooked egg, so it’s easy to digest. The cabbage and onion add a little fibre and prebiotic support for your gut microbes, while pepper can help wake up digestion a bit. One thing to watch is the sodium from stock, soy sauce, and tomato sauce — if you’re making it at home, use a low-salt stock and go easy on the sauces so it stays kind to your gut and bloating stays low.
