Step 1

Slice chicken into thin strips and marinate with white pepper, Shaoxing wine, and oyster sauce until the chicken has absorbed the seasonings.

Step 2

Crack the eggs in a bowl and add 2 tbsp of water and mix well until beaten.

Step 3

In a pot over medium high heat, add the chicken broth, marinated chicken, and corn. Cover and bring to a boil for 1 minute to cook the chicken. Uncover and reduce heat to low.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix together the water and cornstarch to create a slurry and pour it into the broth until slightly thickened. Turn off the heat and let the broth cool to 150F-160F.

Step 5

Slowly pour in the eggs while using a ladle to stir the soup in one direction to create the ribbon of egg or "egg flowers" in the soup.

Step 6

Season with salt, white pepper and msg. Add turmeric if desired for the additional yellow color.

Step 7

Stir in scallions, and add sesame oil if desired. Enjoy!
