Tofu and Mushroom Soup

This comforting Soft Tofu and Mushroom Egg Drop Soup is a silky, flavorful delight that’s both easy to make and deeply satisfying. Tender cubes of soft tofu and earthy mushrooms simmer in a fragrant broth infused with ginger, pepper, and rich lard for a savory depth of flavor. The magic happens when a velvety egg mixture is slowly drizzled into the pot while stirring, creating delicate ribbons that melt in your mouth. A touch of pea starch thickens the soup to the perfect consistency, while chicken essence enhances its umami richness. Finished with a sprinkle of fresh scallions, this soup is a harmonious blend of textures and tastes—creamy tofu, hearty mushrooms, and fluffy egg swirls in every spoonful. Ideal for chilly days or a light yet nourishing meal, this recipe brings warmth and comfort to your table in minutes.
