The first time I ever tried egg drop soup was at a Chinese restaurant. Before my sesame chicken I would faithfully order a cup of wonton soup as an appetizer. However, for whatever reason I decided to order something different. It was time to try egg drop soup. The waitress brought me my soup and I took a minute to look it over. I could see cooked egg and green onions floating in a broth mixture. I inhaled the flavor with a deep smell, and lowered my spoon into the soup. I took my first taste, and I was sold. It was different from the wonton soup, but just as good. That evening wonton gained some competition from egg drop, and a rivalry was born.
Being The Great Chef I went home with a quest to come up with my own version of the soup that changed my life. I looked in the pantry and to my dismay I didn't have any chicken or beef broth. I was frustrated to say the least, but then out of the corner of my eye I saw an orange ray of light. It was a package of Chicken Flavor Maruchan Ramen Noodle Soup. A light bulb went off in my head. How easy would it be to make this chicken flavored soup and simply add a couple of eggs? The answer is easy.
