6 dried black mushrooms
1 large tomato
4 cups chicken broth (see Soups)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 small onion sliced
2 eggs
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon white peppers
Soak mushrooms in hot water 20 minutes or until soft; drain. Rinse in warm water; drain. Squeeze out excess moisture. Remove and discard stems; cut caps into thin strips. Place tomato in boiling water; boil 10 seconds. Immediately place in cold water. Peel; cut into 8 wedges; cut each wedge into halves.
Heat broth to boiling in 3-quart saucepan. Heat wok until hot. Add vegetable oil; tilt wok to coat side. Add onion; stir-fry 1 minute. Add mushrooms and tomato; stir-fry 2 minutes.
Stir tomato mixture into broth; reduce heat to medium. Cover and simmer 5 minutes. Heat to rolling boil over high heat. (If broth is not heated to a rolling boil, egg will not form threads.)
Mix eggs, salt and pepper. Pour egg mixture slowly into broth, stirring constantly with fork, until egg forms threads.
4 or 5 servings
**Stir-fried onion, tomato and black mushrooms add color, texture and flavor to classic egg drop soup. Garnish with sprigs of cilantro; it complements the tomato flavor exquisitely.
