Grandma’s Favorite Dough Drop Soup

Mix flour with water. Pour the water in like tiny droplets—don’t make one big dough! Each droplet will cook into little noodles.

Once the dough forms, set it aside.

Heat oil in a pot and sauté scallions until fragrant. Add tomatoes and cook a few minutes.

Add water to make a simple soup base. Season with soy sauce and a pinch of salt.

Drop in your dough droplets, stir quickly so they don’t stick, and cook until they float and turn slightly transparent.

Pour in beaten eggs like making egg drop soup, cook 20–30 seconds, and finish with fresh scallions.

Optional: sprinkle a little dried shrimp on top for extra flavor.
