Soups
EGG PETAL SOUP WITH CUCUMBERS

1/4 pound lean pork
1 1/2 teaspoons sherry
1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons oil
1 1/2 quarts chicken broth
1 green onion, sliced
1 cucumber. sliced
1/4 teaspoon monosodium glutamate (MSG) (optional)
Salt and pepper
1 egg, slightly beaten

Cut pork in shreds. Combine sherry, soy sauce and cornstarch and mix thoroughly with pork.

Heat oil in a deep kettle and quickly brown pork.

Add broth and simmer 10 minutes.

Add onion, cucumber and mono sodium glutamate. Season to taste with salt and pepper and simmer 5 minutes more.

Bring to a fast boil and slowly add beaten egg, stirring constantly. To make sure that the egg will cook in shreds, or "petals", turn off the heat the moment you add it.
