Title: Tomato Egg Drop Soup
Categories: Soups/stews
Yield: 4 servings

1 qt Chicken stock
2 md Fresh tomatoes, or: drained
1 c -canned tomatoes
2 sm Eggs
1/2 ts Sesame oil
2 ts Light soy sauce
1 ts Salt
1 tb Finely chopped scallions
– white part only
– (reserve tops for garnish

Egg Drop Soup is traditionally Chinese. Tomatoes are not. They were
introduced less than 100 years ago, but nevertheless, they work
wonderfully in this soup.

PUT THE CHICKEN STOCK into a pot and bring to a simmer. If using fresh
tomatoes, peel, seed and cut into 1-inch cubes. If using canned
tomatoes, chop them into small chunks. Lightly beat the eggs, then
combine them with sesame oil in a small bowl. Add the light soy sauce
and salt to the simmering stock, and stir to mix them in well. Add
the tomatoes and simmer for 5 minutes. Next, stir in the scallions,
and then add the egg mixture in a very slow, thin stream. Using a
chopstick or fork, pull the egg slowly into strands. (Stirring the
egg in a "figure 8″ works well.) Garnish with the finely chopped
scallion tops.
