Use this recipe as a wonderful base to build upon. Stir in a few tender herb leaves—basil, cilantro, parsley, or sorrel—to infuse the soup with flavor as the leaves wilt into the broth. Add a slice or two of fresh gingerroot to the simmering broth to add a hint of warm spice and a wonderful aroma. A squeeze of fresh lime or lemon juice will heighten all the flavors with a touch of bright acidity. A splash of vinegar and pinch of hot red pepper flakes or cayenne will make this a hot-and-sour egg drop soup. Leftovers should be reheated and stirred gently.
