For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken stock instead of canned broth.
Adjust the amount of white pepper and salt to your preference. A pinch of sugar can also enhance the sweetness of the corn.
Ensure the soup is not boiling when adding the egg white to prevent it from cooking too quickly and becoming clumpy. Swirling the soup gently creates delicate, even ribbons.
Toasted sesame oil adds a wonderful nutty aroma. Be careful not to add too much, as it can be overpowering.

    I doubled the recipe and it was perfect for a large family gathering.

  • Leatha Abshire

    This is a great base recipe. I added crab meat and doubled the white pepper to make crab and corn soup

  • Jaquelin Sanford

    The cornstarch slurry is key to getting the right consistency. I accidentally added it too quickly the first time and it clumped up, so definitely follow the instructions carefully.

  • Marge Von

    I added a little ginger to the soup, and it tasted amazing!

  • Meaghan Dickens
