How To Make Egg Drop Soup - Cooking Lessons

by Emma Christensen

September 22, 2015

I find a bowl of egg drop soup to be one of the most soothing and comforting dishes ever invented. You only need three base ingredients to make it, two in a pinch. And yet breathing in that steamy broth and savoring the first spoonful of silky egg curd...

This soup is properly an appetizer. Despite its simplicity, I guarantee that your guests will be overjoyed to see this coming when you walk out of the kitchen. This recipe will make four small cups of soup, but can be easily scaled up if you have more guests at your table. I generally use 1 to 2 cups of broth and one egg per person.

Is Raw Milk Cheese About To Get The Axe?

Help us protect the best tasting and healthiest cheese from a spurious new FDA attack. Action Alert!

George W. Bush's FDA banned the import of the finest French artisanal cheeses, which are usually made from raw milk that has been cultured with special bacteria, and then aged, which makes it even safer. This ban just happened to coincide with the French government refusing to join us in the invasion of Iraq and instead criticizing us. Now it appears that Barack Obama's FDA is going after our best domestic artisanal cheeses, also often made from raw milk.

Norwegian biorefinery company Borregaard creates a fat substitute that will give the body more fiber.

Borregaard, a Norwegian biorefinery company, has developed a fat substitute called Sense-Fi that can be used to bulk out things such as ice cream, yogurt and mayonnaise, as well as be added to emulsified meat, such as hot dogs. According to Socius, a nutritional company that supplies the product, Sense-Fi is a thickener that looks like white cream and provides the same texture and mouthfeel as fat. It is made from micro-fibrillated cellulose, which is a waste product trees produce when they are converted into timber.

A new lawsuit claims that Chipotle still serves lots of items made with GMOs - despite advertising itself as GMO-free.

In April, Chipotle announced with great fanfare that it would no longer serve food made with genetically modified ingredients. On Monday, a law firm filed a class-action lawsuit in federal court claiming that the Mexican-style, fast-casual chain's marketing is misleading and deceptive because it still sells lots of foods made with GMOs.

In the August 20 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, two respected experts on pesticides and children's environmental health call for the FDA to require mandatory labeling of GMO foods.

Currently, the FDA does not require labeling of genetically modified foods, even though 65 countries mandate the labeling of GM foods, and more than 90 percent of Americans support it. Last month, the DARK Act, which would block states and federal government from making mandatory labeling laws, passed in the House. Next, it goes to the Senate.

Why did Obama nationalize the U.S. food supply with executive order 13603?

In March 2012, President Obama quietly signed an Executive Order that has major implications should some sort of national emergency arise, such as enabling the federal government to take over management and distribution of all food and water.

In issuing the order, EO 13603, titled, "National Defense Resources Preparedness," Obama claimed authority under the Defense Production Act of 1950, a Korean War-era statute (50 U.S.C.) (see it here) that gives the government the power to marshal whatever resources are necessary to protect and defend the country during "military conflicts, natural or man-caused disasters, or acts of terrorism within the United States," the statute says.

These Shocking (and Completely True) Newspaper Headlines Will Make You Swear Off GMOs for Life

Food is sacred no matter what country or what culture you come from: it's how families bond with each other at the end of the day, how we nourish ourselves, a way to connect with strangers and so much more.

For thousands of years our food producers have treated the process with respect, up until the past few decades that is. And lately, things have been spiraling out of control, with genetic modification techniques, mutagenesis (subjecting seeds to radiation) and other bizarre production techniques taking over. More leeway for GMO and artificial food producers has led to the following monstrosities: four food experiments that should have never the light of day, and make you wonder just what we did to deserve this kind of disrespect from the people responsible for feeding and nourishing us.

Toilet to plate: NASA astronauts make use of human waste

If NASA truly wants to send humans to live in places beyond planet Earth, they are going to have to make sure that people have the best chances of survival. This means packing as many essential Earth materials from food to vitamins to plastics...

But fertilizers aren't the only use for human waste in space. Researchers at Clemson University have received a $200,000 yearly grant to figure out how to use urine and exhaled carbon dioxide as building blocks for a number of useful materials. Professor Mark Blenner from Clemson reports, "A particular strain of yeast can be genetically manipulated to create polymers, or plastics, used for 3D printing, as well as Omega 3s, which lower heart disease risk and protect skin and hair." A genetically modified strain of yeast will incorporate nitrogen from urine and exhaled CO2 into the production of these materials.
