Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine the chicken broth, soy sauce and sesame oil. Bring to a boil. Stir together the cornstarch and water to dissolve cornstarch; pour into the boiling broth.

• In a saucepan, bring chicken broth, rice wine, ground ginger, white pepper and sugar to a boil on medium to high heat.
• Simmer for 7 minutes.
• Add scallions and let simmer for 4 minutes to soften.

• Combine the cornstarch with the cold water and mix well (no lumps).
• Slowly add cornstarch mixture to the boiling broth while constantly stirring to desired consistency. (you may not need it all). Stir while boiling for 2 minutes.
• Reduce heat to a low boil, add white pepper and then "drizzle" the beaten eggs "slowly" into the broth while stirring constantly. The eggs should be forming into small streams of ribbons. Continue to gently boil 1 minute.
• Remove pan from heat and add the sliced scallions to the soup.
• Serve the soup immediately, stirring the pot before each serving is dished.
