The taste of this soup really depends on the quality of chicken stock used. The highly flavorful homemade chicken stock which I used produced a delicious Spinach Egg Drop Soup. My mother always added spinach to her wonton soup so the addition of spinach to egg drop soup seemed natural to me. Next time, I will add a little scallion. Thank you, fishywitch for a new twist on egg drop soup.Reply
