I think you'll spend more in ingredients than going to get some.

1 teaspoon rice wine
1/4 teaspoon white pepper

4 c Chicken broth
1/2 ts Salt
1/2 ts Sugar
1 Egg
1 ts Cornstarch
1 tb Water
* Water chestnuts (optional)
* Green Onions (optional)

PREPARATION: Add the salt and sugar to the broth. In a separate bowl, beat the egg until frothy. In a small cup, mix the cornstarch and water.

COOKING: Bring the broth to a boil over medium heat in a soup pot. Add the cornstarch mixture, and stir until slightly thickened. Remove from stove. add egg very, very slowly, frop by drop, stirring constantly.

OPTIONAL: If you wish add 2 minced water chestnuts, and/or one sliced green onion, including the white and green parts.

It turned out a little salty but decent.
