Directions

Prep 5 minCook 10 min
  1. 1

    In a 2‑quart saucepan, combine the chicken broth, water, soy sauce, sherry, sliced ginger, and smashed garlic. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then remove and discard the ginger and garlic.

  2. 2

    Stir in the egg noodles and simmer uncovered until just tender, about 4 minutes. Create a gentle circular whirlpool in the soup and slowly stream in the beaten eggs. Let simmer without stirring until strands set, about 1 minute.

  3. 3

    Remove from heat. Stir in the scallions and sesame oil, then season with salt to taste. Serve hot.
